Well we finished last night and ran around today finishing up some sloughs and few spots left. 100% done #harvest2025 and we couldn’t do it without our extra help and @TrochuMotors who keeps us up and going everyday. Huge thanks to them. Also @Geringhoff makes it easy!

We finished all the cereals Sunday night and now just waiting for canola. Lots to do in the mean time. Wife also brought Ryan out for a combine ride, I think he will make a good operator. #geringhoff @TrochuMotors Wayne for the massey onesie Ryan’s wearing.

Finished the peas the other day, was doing some full flexing with the hoff #geringhoff the best header on the market. Cleaned the ideal to go back into some more barley. And as the harvest crew continued I went seeding to put some fall rye in from #didsburyseeds.

As I’m servicing trucks over the winter, sometimes I get time to do a lazy man polish. Not picky at all, but alittle maintenance on the chrome keeps them looking nice.

Well with this nice fall weather we are trying something new, I’ve been told it’s called an Agro Plow, fracturing down about 12 inches and putting a cocktail of stuff down in the ground along with nozzles that spray on top, just a rental unit from RAwest in Vulcan.

Well that is a wrap on #Harvest24 for Meadow Lea Farms, Dad ran the combine for the last few days and we ended harvest with the Faba Beans. Want to thank our harvest help, the wifes for harvest meals and to @TrochuMotors and @Geringhoff for keeping us going this harvest.
