September morn….
….a young cow greets the day atop one of Thistle Hill’s hills. She’s U31 out of one of the first females we bought from the Trantham’s Lenoir Creek farm. Sired by Watson, a Rotokawa 974 bull from Don and Heather Minto that was a major influence on our herd.
We leave now for the joint meeting in North Carolina of the two Devon associations recently joined as one. Thistle Hill will have a “joint booth” in honor of the occasion with Tomina Farms. We hope you’ll stop by and say hello.

I thought about going to the conference, but there were no topics for educational purposes that appealed to me. Things that I would like to see discussed would be silvo pasturing, fodder production and key line for water collection. As a man of great influence, see what you can do.
