We discuss final harvest preparations including our new grain cart scale app for improved inventory tracking, and reflect on insights from the Farm Wives Club event about finding joy beyond productivity.
• Equipment preparations complete with preventative maintenance thanks to our trusted mechanic
• New bluetooth scale app will document bushels hauled and storage locations for better inventory management
• Crop outlook good but not matching last year's record yields due to disease pressure from wet summer
• Farm Wives Club featured speakers on vulnerability, joy, and creating community through shared experiences
• Wealth extends beyond money to include time, health, purpose, and community
• Challenge for harvest season: finding balance between productivity and enjoying the process
• Breaking screen addiction habits by creating alternative evening activities like reading or journaling
• Last year proved slowing down during harvest led to better experiences without delaying completion
