I'm trying to convince my loving husband Steve to let me build a barn and buy a cow. She's a lovely 3 year old Jersey and has calved before. But of course for the winter I'm going to need a dry place for her to sleep and plenty of good hay in the loft. She's living on PEI right now and so I'm thinking we will have a weekend away some time this summer and go meet her and check her over in person. What do you guys think? Her udder and conformation look good but I'll want to give her a rub down and make sure her teats are good. Price is $800 and she's bred to calve in March. I appreciate your opinions.
We had a dream, like so many others before us, to live a simple and sustainable life on our own organic farm... so we drove from Vancouver Island, British Columbia to the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia, and we've been here nearly 6 years. We love life, learning, and sharing with others. Follow our adventures as we build a vibrant small family farm and work towards self-sufficiency using a combination of traditional methods, permaculture and original ideas.

Typically, the way they're introduced is in the egg form," said Environmental Specialist Erika Castillo with the Alameda County Mosquito Abatement District. She adds that the virtually undetectable, microscopic eggs are inadvertently brought in from overseas in baggage or on cargo ships. To know how to prevent mosquito bites, Visit Mosquito net Chennai
