It is Harvest time in Minnesota.

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

Actually it is harvest time in most of America.  But here in Minnesota, the farmers are in full gear.

Soy beans are the top priority right now.  With the beans at peak ripeness it is time to get them off the field before he start dropping on the ground.

The big green machines are working overtime right now.  It is extremely dry right now which makes for a lot of dust.  But it also makes for easy access for the marginal grounds that sometimes get planted.

So for today, the farmers are working fast before the next rain comes.  It seams that once the rain shows up...it will be here for a while!

Bill, farmers know you need to work hard when the work is there.  It is a great balancing act for many.

Hi, Bill.

We still have some cornfields yet to be harvested. Some soybean fields are starting to turn really brown, but not ready yet. The skies turn brown when harvesting season is in full gear. Good blog!
