Bees at work, so perfect for clover seeding. Even with no rain it will sit there in the cow pats until able to germinate.
There’s a lot of grass like this at the minute with bees everywhere. Hoping the clover seeds and the cows spread it everywhere on the farm ideally

The joys of a low risk area!Passed our FSA tests yesterday so milk bottled and being sold today.
Has to be called raw. Also has to have a health warning on it. Probably easier to sell cigarettes!Good on you
But I'd use a different term to "Raw" Or is that the term you have to use?
If you mean TB then yes we are low risk area but we now have to test yearly because of the raw milk. The tests we had were for hygiene of the milk (coliforms).The joys of a low risk area!
