We checked (just before the rains came) to see where the little seeds were, in their creation process.
There is a baby sprout starting to attach itself to the ground as a root! WONDERFUL!
The Alfalfa seed is being planted. Alfalfa seed is one of most expensive seeds to purchase-$200 a bag. The seed is very, very tiny, smaller than a mustard seed; so it takes lots of seeds to cover the field.
Once the seed takes hold, a farmer can get from 3-5 years harvest of hay, but the first year is critical. We won’t see any harvest this year, except maybe one in the late summer or early fall.
