Harvest 2015 officially got rolling on Tuesday, September 8. Until today, there has only been one weather-related break in the action. As I type, I’m watching storm clouds move in from the West. A short break will be welcome after seven days of hard work. At last count, 28% of the corn is harvested so a change in the weather may give us a chance to switch to beans for a while. Please watch on FB & Twitter for the most up-to-date Pistorius Farms harvest news.
Pistorius Farms planters officially began rolling on the afternoon of April 14th. With just a few weather related breaks in the action, everything is in the ground as of May 2. A drive around the area shows corn up and even a few bean fields with plants emerging. With warm weather and occasional rain in the forecast, we look forward to even more progress in the week ahead.
Pistorius Farms strives to be an active participant in our community. Each year, the farm is happy to sponsor a Taylorville YMCA youth basketball team. These two athletes were happy to pose after a win one Saturday morning in January. Stay tuned for pictures of the Meridian Softball team the farm is sponsoring this summer!
