We
won't be doing too much to celebrate here at Sethian Farm but carrying
on as business as usual. It's pretty chilly and Bug isn't feeling great
to begin with so I think we'll spend our time inside today. Of course S
will be out there milking, feeding, fetching hay, and doing whatever
else he needs to get done today. Please do whatever you can to celebrate and promote Agriculture today!
