About that Hay

Our two big mows look much like the one in the video

A reader shared this nice video of how baled hay is made in the comments the other day. It is so well done that I want to make sure it is out here where everyone can see it. Well worth the three minutes it will take to watch it.

    These old barns are precious and need to be preserved. We've got one, and I study it every time I go in it. They are an amazing part of our history.

    What is it about great old barns and those hand-hewn beams? I find them as awe-inspiring as cathedrals with stained glass windows.
    And those goats in that hay-making video! How adorable :)

    chickenfarmer, I am with you there. This barn has amazing stories to tell, what with graffiti from a hundred years ago or more up in the hay mow.

    Cathy, I agree. I don't go up in the mow much any more, but I used to love to take photos of the light coming in over the beams and the sparkling of the dust motes slowly drifting.
