Westminster is Flying the Flag This Summer

Flags in Westminster

Our town of Westminster placed American flags all along the main street on Memorial Day weekend; they’ll fly until Labor Day. Our uncles, Roger and Ralph, and dad, Hocker Harlow– the second generation on Harlow Farm — all served in the Armed Forces during World War II and just after. We remember them and all the others who have served our country. Photo by Lori Larue.

 

Haying Time

The weather turned off just right for haying this week, so Brandon and the rest of the haying crew have been out making hay for the beef cattle, and straw for bedding and to mulch some of the vegetable fields. The asparagus bed, new last year, and just finishing up for this spring, got a good blanket of straw to keep down the weeds.

This year’s strawberries are just starting to ripen, so watch for them at the farmstead. They’re looking great!
