3rd August 2013
It was a beautiful summer morning which Sybil and I made the most of with an early walk. The footpath across the 70 acre was very peaceful - but not for long as harvest started today and the oilseed rape in the 70 acre was first to be cut. Early feedback is that yield and quality look good but just as the first swallow doesn't make a summer, the first cuts of the combine don't make a harvest!
