The brown season is almost upon where all the stubble fields, potato fields in fact everything bar the sugar beet fields have ploughed, harrowed and cultivated ready for sowing.
This twenty-five acre field is waiting for drilling with a new strain of wheat that will be grown for seed and in turn that seed will will provide a harvest for 2020 when it has been harvested and stored next year. Meanwhile we love the texture, uniformity and colour of the carefully prepared soil. It's all a little like a carefully raked buddhist gravel garden, certainly the uniformity is not of Mother Nature's making.
The other half reckons that it's like the surface of the moon.
So that's where she goes on Thursday evenings.
So different.....brown season for me takes place in late February and early March. It is that time when it seems everything is brown.
ReplyDeleteBrown time here is ploughing time, over the next couple of weeks the colour of the landscape will change. John
