Harvest has started...finally.


Harvest has started and what a late harvest it is this year. Our sunflower is now blooming beautifully, well behind last year's blooms that were finished and dried down by this time of year. Everyone in southern Alberta is behind this year for harvest so what does that mean for the everyday bird feeder.....
Well, the crops are at risk of frost and if we do get an early frost then that will affect the quality and quantity of seed out there for bird seed. So we farmers are hoping and praying for warm fall days so we can get the crop in the bin in good shape.
