The Semmler Family Farm - raising Scottish Highland Cattle and Red Wattle Pigs. We also have several other kinds of animals we raise for food and entertainment. We grow and harvest the hay our animals eat. Life on the farm is never dull and keeps you busy.

almost dry again
The snow melted but it's still not warm and green yet. This spring is having a hard time breaking through. Everyone is doing well and enjoying the sun when it does peek through.
This is the red wattle boar just standing in the sunshine. He has two sows and is the father to all our little piglets. My daughter, Eva, sold three little ones at the (almost) local chicken swap in Carlton last weekend. The weather was cold and rainy but many people came out to see all the various animals brought to the swap. It is always a good time, no matter what the weather brings.
A quick shot of the new white bull calf. Yesterday he got a new ear ring and was out running with the other older calves in the bigger pasture. We ear tag them when they go out of the nursery pen.
