Good afternoon,
This week we have been making hay whilst the sun shines. Andrew cut the rye grass on Saturday, Gareth turned it with the tedder on Sunday, Monday & Tuesday, Jack raked it into rows yesterday and Matt will bale it up today and store it in the yard for when the cows come in over the winter.
We’ve also had to TB test our herd this week, which is a routine but arduous job. It means bringing all the cows into the yard to be injected with tuberculin and seeing whether this causes a reaction or lump in the skin 3 days later. Even an inconclusive result can be very disruptive because all the cows will need to be brought back in agin 60 days later, so keep your fingers crossed for us all.
This Saturday
Andrew will be giving a talk in the yard about Trenchmore Farm from 2-3pm and we’d love you to join us.
Our burger boys are back serving up wagyu patties, burger sauce, applewood cheese & baby gem lettuce in brioche buns and the Moo Tap will be serving drinks from 1-4pm.
Spicy, vegan & kid size options also available. Please pre-book to save your spot.
