Default Ground cow manure that's aged

This is 2nd year, I have used
Cow manure.
I am lucky enough to live fairly close to a cattle/meat Operation.
They put they manure in rows
And have a machine that grinds it once a month. After aging for. 2 years they sell it .
I gave 60.00 for a ton.
I have a full size pickup bed, it was running over the top. It brought my garden to life last year.
It in south central ky, near Liberty, ky.

Never thought I would be jealous of someone and their ground cow poo!

Me too, Spike2! I used to be able to have a dump truck load of aged manure delivered from some cattle farms about 40 miles away, but they are all retiring and no longer do it.

I really miss being on the farm when it comes to getting good cow poop. Used to have basically unlimited access to as much as I wanted!

I pray that our Good Farmers across the United States "Do Not Retire".


Young people just don't want to be farmers anymore. They said there are no Finacial benefits. We must have Offices to help Fund for all Farmers to help with the paperwork. Especially farmers like me who suffered from Dyslexia and other problems. Trying to fill out loan packages is hard work. I am thankful to have had NuNs in New Jersey to help me deal with my disability. But it is still hard work, Amen!!


I am also trying to stop with my Amen, but my praising God for my ability to read like a normal person just needing extra time, is a miracle, Amen!!!.

But I can talk for hours just using my Memory, but when it comes down to hundreds of sophisticated legal forms, running a frame and taking care of a family is hard.

Farming is a Profession that needs all State's Attention before we keep losing many Farmers, with no children to run the farms because of the low income.

America Small Farmers is a needed Commodity, that needs to be saved with a helping hand. Amen!!
