Simply Beautiful at the Garden

April 25, 2024

I spent this morning leisurely walking the property and basking in the beauty of where we live and where our livestock graze and grow your grass fed food.

Not everyone gets an opportunity to experience this majestic land first hand, so I’m bringing you with me in photos.

Scroll slowly through these pictures, take a deep breathe, smell and listen to each one, and really drink from Nature’s full cup of glory.
 

We start out the barnyard gate and first meet the ponies.

Then our new livestock guardian pups come say, “hi!”

Up the hill to the work horses are grazing with the beef cattle.

I hope you enjoyed our walk.

Close your eyes and anchor this magnificent wonder.

We don’t get too many opportunities to breathe in the splendor of the world in which we live.

Feel free to return to this Photo Galley anytime when you are depressed or doubt God’s divine creation.

Or, come out for visit and experience Fat Cattle Kingdom first hand.

We would love to share this spectacular farm life with you and show you how lucky the animals are to live on some of the most nutrient-dense and clean pastures in the country.

Spring is Here!

As the weather sways back and forth from Spring back to Winter and back to Spring again, we are beginning to feel life preparing to POP!! Daffodils Bloom. Tree buds express. Grass is beginning to grow. Baby animals are being born. On the farm, it’s time to wrap up all final winter fence and water system repair projects, test out the equipment and get ready for the next 6 months of rotational grazing and hay making.

The Sun Will Rise Again

I was having a difficult time getting excited about Spring. Even with the pure white Dogwoods, the Eastern Redbuds bursting along the highway, the Daffodils and Forsythia blossoming and bedazzling, the baaa-ing new baby lambs, and the pasture so ready to burst with new life, I still was feeling dull and depressed. Here at Burke’s Garden, we buried several of our good friends and members of our farm family.
