The Big Red Barn. The Adventures of Barb and Steve in Southwestern Wisconsin. Wednesday, June 5, 2013. A Very Busy and Wet Spring. Things are in full gear at the farm. So much to do outside, but it won't stop raining. We are back and forth to Illinois, so when we are up here, we need to get stuff done. I am excited to say that we will FINALLY both be up here full time in July! They are amazingly good in the car though. Looking into the storage space with the soy insulation. The front garden has everythin...

The Big Red Barn: November 2011
http://the-big-red-barn-blog.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
The Big Red Barn. The Adventures of Barb and Steve in Southwestern Wisconsin. Monday, November 28, 2011. This weekend we made the coop cozy warm for the chickens. Not over-the-top warm. Just warm enough not to freeze their combs off. This is what we did. The easy part was placing a water heater. Next, after much research, we bought a thermostatically-controlled outlet. Comes on at 35 degrees and goes off at 45 degrees) to which we plugged in a ceramic infrared heat emitter. Thursday, November 10, 2011.

The Big Red Barn. The Adventures of Barb and Steve in Southwestern Wisconsin. Sunday, October 30, 2011. Vinnie hurt his back leg again yesterday. Poor old guy. He has a hard time getting up. Hope he heals quickly. Tigger is growing up so fast. He really likes to go outside and play. Wood is stacked and ready for winter. High winds ripped the storm door from it's hinges a couple weeks ago. Milk weed pod at sunset. Sunset on a day that it hailed twice. Finished trimming around the garage doors. The cows es...

The Big Red Barn. The Adventures of Barb and Steve in Southwestern Wisconsin. Tuesday, June 19, 2012. This is Grover, our new 8 week old kitten. He likes the chickens. And after a week of hissing and growling, I think Tigger is accepting him :-). This is the lower garden. The potatoes are the back 3 1/2 rows. There are also sweet potatoes, cabbage, squash and a few extra tomato plants. The hazelnuts are planted in the pasture area below. What happened to your other kitty? Was her name Mia? Our new websit...

The Big Red Barn. The Adventures of Barb and Steve in Southwestern Wisconsin. Sunday, June 3, 2012. Tomorrow Will Be an Exciting Day! It has been a very busy spring here in Wisconsin. Lots of projects happening. Tomorrow, Mark Shepard. In preparation for the planting, we took down a dead tree in the pasture. Our neighbor Jim came over with his chainsaw and took it down. Dead elm in the pasture. Here are some pics I took of the pasture tonight. That's the neighbor's tractor in front of the barn. For scape...

The Big Red Barn. The Adventures of Barb and Steve in Southwestern Wisconsin. Thursday, July 14, 2011. Mia and Vinnie co-existing. Last night went great. Vinnie slept on the floor next to the bed and Mia slept on the bed. He lets me know when he needs to go out and while I was working in the garden he was always close by. He met Brutus (the neighbor's dog ) this morning and acted like he owned the place. Brutus accepted it and they took turns sniffing each other. Wednesday, July 13, 2011. I'm sure you ar...
