They do love it. We love it too and we bought a 50 pound bag of seed. My husband sowed it thick on our poor sand soil. In some places it is thick and beautiful, in others it is skimpy and struggling. But we keep working at it and it is gradually improving.

I just have to share with you pictures of pasture #2. We have raised pigs in it and have worked hard in it to be able to have this lush deep clover and rye grass. Underneath it, is Bermuda and Bahia that we sprigged last fall. I hope it grows like this clover has!

We let the sheep in pasture #2 today!

See the Crimson clover in the background?

Those are really really beautiful pastures Bay.
Your hard work is evident. Look at those happy sheep!

Thank you. Haha we have one acre that is lush in deep grass and clover. Now we just have to get the rest of the place up to par. We planted pasture #1 and the pipeline the same way, but is skimpy. We are working on it.
