What to do with it.
G3farms:
The power a bucket of sweet feed has on a cow is tremendous. Mine will come running for an empty bucket if I just beat on the side of it and go nuts if there is some gravels inside to make noise. Have to watch the back of the truck if there are buckets in it, they will put some pretty good dents in sheet metal. Glad you have things going your way!!

Here, in Kansas City, we have a nonprofit agency called Harvesters. In such a case as the one iddee is describing, many companies would call Harvesters and Harvesters would pick up that produce. They are able to quickly turn it around and distribute it to agencies and churches. It's great to see that iddee was able to get hold of some of that and put it to good use. It's a shame to waste food when so many go without.
iddee:
It didn't go to waste. It was advertised on craig's list and it was all gone in 2 days.

My wife is in the basement now canning tomato's and freezing corn (cutting it off the cob).I have been picking melons (cantaloupe and water melons), and Concord grapes to sell at the farmers market tomorrow, and honey off course. We haven't had a rain in three weeks and the watermelon vines are dried up, but i picked some 50lb. and 60lb. watermelons :o. How do you figure that?? Jack

Ef says: "I think you're getting paid back for taking such good care of that unfortunate cow." :occasion14:
