February Farming

February farming is full of wind , snow and ice. It means cutting next years firewood. It means doing odd jobs that will not get done when spring comes. It means repairing tools and equipment for jobs ahead. It means keeping the fire going while making plans. Wondering all the while if the slower winter days can be appreciated for the lack of urgency that will come with the finer weather. St. Isidore... pray for us.
