It's that time of the year again, when I go through things on the farm and see what needs repairs and what needs to be replaced. It can be quite an undertaking.
In the garden I've been taking out all the old plants and prepping the soil for planting, which needs to be done very soon.
I've also been sweeping out the barn and washing down the floors and stalls. I usually use a bleach and water mixture for cleaning those areas to be sure any germs that may have bedded down for the winter are cleaned out. If the paint is starting to look rough then me and my brother get together over the weekend and do some repainting. Luckily, this year the weather didn't affect it too much so we're good on that front.
I do have some farm animal supplies that are going to have to be replaced. Some of the calf feeders are looking a little worse for wear and we definitely need those. I'm also going to be investing in some feed buckets that are easier to mount in the barn stalls.
Needless to say, I am enjoying this warmer weather and I'm thankful for the time to be able to get all of these things done up.
