-40C (which is also -40F) wind chills this morning. The crew is laying out the thick blankets today! Every single job related to caring for livestock gets a whole bunch harder at these temps. Our crew deserve a raise…in temperature for sure! #thankyoucowgirlsandboys

Who doesn’t love Burger and fries or steak and potato. We are accelerating the process by feeding the potatoes straight to our cows. You say potato, I say, silage #RecyclingReusingrepurposing

I could watch this all day long. Raking silage to keep the quality up and save the wheel loader from abuse. #cowchow @K3Seeds #Yevhen

My liberal loving son gave me the thirdbest selling book on amazon ca. for Christmas. I got all uptight preparing to argue what I was about to read. Turns out it’s a lot better than I thought. In fact, this author should write Trudeau speeches going forward. #justinsmemoirs

There’s that saying: “fertilizer happens”. Keeping manure out of the bunk is almost like putting money in the bank. When each animal eats $5 a day we want them to savour every mouthful. #sustainability #nutrientrecycling

The last time I saw something go from that hot…to that cold…that fast, was the night I asked my wife if her lingerie was getting a little tight. #Icyrightthrough #minus40C

No matter how crummy you feel about something you did or didn’t do or and what you should or shouldn’t have done or experiencing a mishap your fault or not...thankfully God will cause the sun to come up again tomorrow. #Mentalhealth #weallneedtheson
