Life on a Colorado Farm

About Dayphoto

My name is Linda Brown. I live on a farm on the western slope of Colorado, in the high mountain desert. I’ve lived here all my life, hailing back four generations on my father’s side. Today I blog about our farm, the everyday activities that keep the farm going. I also write about my thoughts and dreams and goals. On Friday’s I always write about TLC Cai-Cai. Our sweet kitty who helps keep the farm safe. And Boo Berry Betty, a breeder dog learning to be a Farm Dog! The lovely thing about blogging it opens the world up for all of us to reach out and meet people from many different cultures and different ways of life. You can find me every day (but Saturday) at https://coloradofarmlife.wordpress.com/ Your Friend on a Western Colorado Farm, Linda Brown

Can You See the Difference in the Soil?

Rolling the Plowed Fields

A roller harrow breaks clods and churns the soil. The rollers penetrate up to 2″ deep, mixing and firming the soil in preparation for the next step.

How Terry Stocks the Farm Equipment

Posted on March 24, 2008 by Dayphoto

This is an 40-acre farm in Grand Junction, right under the monument, completely surrounded by subdivisions. The cost of doing farm work against the neighbor complaints, just became too much, so the farmer sold out. He made a large amount of money and the ground will grow houses instead of crops.

Terry was interested in the 115 John Deere blade, and the manure spreader. They all sold for much more than he wanted to spend. It was a good sale for the seller, everything went really high.
