Our friend and photographer @lisajeangodfrey snapped a few 📸 during chores this morning. This is me scraping down the concrete pad where the cows stand to eat hay. Before scraping, we pitchfork all the manure from the bedded pack area up onto the pad. We do this twice a day while the cows are being milked. A clean barn = clean cows = clean milk!

Up on top of Jay Mountain. Wendy never passes up a chance to soak her bod.....we shirked lots of farm tasks today to go on this hike. Very worth it!

While the cows are in the barn getting milked we put out hay for the night. Soon the herd will saunter out of the barn, push these lowly heifers out of the way, and get to eating. (at Sugar House Creamery)

Here's an idea: sneak off to Deer Isle, Maine and get yourself married down at Billing's Diesel and Marine Services in Stonington. Get @jwyldephoto to take your photos and @chickadeehillflowers to build you a bouquet. We did! 📷 by @jwyldephoto

Our airBnB guest, Mike, captured a good one last Friday night @ Supper Jay! 🎻🎶 music under the old apple tree by #americanstringcircus (at Sugar House Creamery)

Three years ago today we closed on the sale of this little farm tucked away in the mountains. The next morning we woke up to catch the sunrise and took this photo. Now, this old #dutchgambrelbarn is filled with milking equipment, a creamery, a milking parlor, a winter's worth of hay, an office/ packaging room, and beneath it ages wheels upon wheels of preserved milk.
