Here on our farm we are trying to stay safe during the Covid 19 Pandemic.We are considered essential workers. When so much of the rest of the world stopped, because of the Covid 19 pandemic, Farmers / Ranchers kept going. That means we still are working everyday. On the farm life still goes on no matter what. We still need to care for all the animals daily on our farm.
That's just a fact of life on a Farm or Ranch. "You can't turn a switch on a goat to keep it from stopping producing milk." "The goats still need to be led out to pasture." Our daily lives have not changed at all. We milk the goats in the morning, we milk in the afternoon. And think, the rest of the world is literally shut down, and we still have to do what we do. There have been some changes to the way business is conducted and some adaptations that had to be made, but the work has to go on. We sill are going to the feed store weekly to purchase feed and hay for all our livestock. We call in and place our order. Pay for it over the phone. Then we just drive up and guys load our truck. We never have to get out of the truck. Now this has spoiled us! Limiting person-to-person contact can help slow the spread of the corona virus. We are trying to do our part to stay sage. We encourage Texas farmers and ranchers to wave, call, chat over the fence line or online - just make sure you visit with each other in ways that avoid groups and respects the 6-feet social distancing guideline. When all this pandemic started our oldest daughter Jennifer and I made some masks for the family and close friends. Little did we know that this Pandemic would go on for months. I was very thankful we had made mask for all our family. Then a few weeks later Jennifer, Mike (our son-in-law), and Kristen came over with their sew machines in hand...hahahaha! Mike learned how to cut the material for the masks and the girls and I sewed and sewed masks. We made enough for Stace's guys at work and for Mike's sisters work as well. I think we were all happy when they were all done. Now that was and adventure. Just happy we could help others. We've seen a lot more people very interested in knowing where their food comes from, and wanting to learn about homesteading. Before the pandemic people thought all the food came from the store. Then when all the store shelves were wiped out, it made people realize that our food actually came from a Farm. WOW...WHAT A CONCEPT. Like you, I am praying for a quick end to this pandemic. I also have faith that great stories of neighbors helping neighbors and communities working together (even from a distance) to protect one another will shine brightly across this great country.
