Feeding the calf--Richard Mason Show

So our most recent calf to be born on Clover Creek Farm is an angus/jersey cross. We feed him twice daily after each milking. During the middle of the day, he grazes grass. I'm surprised he picked it up so quickly, most of our calves don't learn how to graze so soon after being born, but I'm glad he did learn because it will cause him to grow much faster. If you have any questions, comment below, or on the youtube page. Don't forget to subscribe!

Working like John Henry--Richard Mason Show

After grading the construction site, Dad and I sink 2" posts into the ground. You can't see it, but there is a plumb line stretched out that tells me when to stop pounding. Dad is seen using his level to make sure that the posts are being put in straight. Driving these posts made me feel like I was John Henry a working on the railroad!!! LOL!

Uproot it!!!--Richard Mason Show

Here is the site where we will begin to construct our high tunnel. But we have a problem. There is a huge walnut tree in the middle of the plot! After cutting it down, Dad and I work to remove the enormous stump.
