Cows on farm post cards
Animals->Cow Dairy farming is a class of agricultural , or an animal husbandry , enterprise, for long-term production of milk , usually from dairy cows but also from goats and sheep , which may be either processed on-site or transported to a dairy factory for processing and eventual retail sale. Most dairy farms sell the male calves born by their cows, usually for veal production, or breeding depending on quality of the bull calf, rather than raising non-milk-producing stock. Many dairy farms also grow their own feed, typically including corn , alfalfa , and hay . This is fed directly to the cows, or is stored as silage for use during the winter season.

Fall on the Farm Postcard
On a beautiful fall day with the moon rising in the sky, cutting and rolling hay is all in a days’ work and provides food for the animals during the cold months ahead. This is just one of the many things a farmer does to prepare for winter. This is a beautiful photograph showcasing the bounty of fall. An old, but still working barn in the background, will undoubtedly store the “bounty” until needed.
