Powerstarâ„¢ Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Same as last year, one handy thread for all the coming action! Any pictures etc already post them here!! Personally, weather depending I shall be carting trailers tomorrow. We've got 150 acres being mown down today. Shame about the weather here though, drizzly and misty at present, starting to bring back dreaded memories of silage 2008! Anyway, to all of you out there with healthy crops of grass, best wishes on the harvest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
