I need a set of gathering wheels for my baler. Can't find anything used here. Anyone know where I might get a set?

What baler do you have. I forgot. I wanted a set till I found out what a new set cost.

Hay is in the barn, fughing tired. 98 degrees all day, no wind at all. Baler baled fine, new twine bales for the win.

It was 90 here today. 98 with Tennessee valley humidity.....you earned your keep today my friend.

94 here today. We have that humidity you speak of. Just real hot. Once it gets a certain hot. Well then it’s just hot

Thanks but I am going to slack all day tomorrow. Getting too old to bale hay in July.

This guy
Might have something. I personally dealt with him very recently. I thought he treated me fair enough

Duck started laying eggs again after having paused a while.


My mom's "tame" Silkie, crazy bird.

Yes it’s done. So new belts last fall new clutch new tines new guards. She worked when I pulled her in the shop so maybe the feed will be nice and silky now. I’ll have to cut some to try her out

This seasons garlic harvest is nearly cured / dried. With this effort turning out as tasty as it did, I'm already prepping for this falls planting.
Stopped by a local grower and picked up a couple of varieties of seed garlic for the next batch.

Music, small bulbs bundled are smaller for culinary/eating, and the larger fresh harvested (needs to be cured) for the next crop.


And then a smaller amount of Armenian, also very tasty.


I hope to have enuf room after planting those varieties to include a replant of the Chesnok red that I am enjoying from this years harvest.

I'm thinking about letting several cloves of the new plantings this fall, be grown on the 2-year till harvest plan.

Good friend of mine has this Vermeer Rebel 5410 for sale. His wife does not want rounds only small squares from JD 328. I stopped doing that field work after last leg blood clot. I did use it last year for about 15 rounds, was going to rain and just want to get remained put up. It is a twine baler and that computer allows you to set starting, middle and end wrap counts. She should do some field work, round bales are soooo much easier. Thinking he would want around 11,000.
