Farm Wins Progress From Soil District Help
Don transformed a gully through district equipment, installed water troughs, and built nearly a mile of high fence to keep livestock from woods and streams. With WVU Extension, New River Farm Service and DNR backing, productivity rose from nine hay rolls on 3 acres to 24 this year. The farm houses a Holstein cow and four steers, plus chickens, horses, ducks, and shelter for other animals. Grandson Dustin’s baseball team and Carolyn’s church group visited. Carolyn calls the land a blessing from God and hopes deer damage to wheat can be stopped to achieve self sufficiency. Canning milk yields butter and cheese, while last year’s garden filled every jar.
