The Bowman's have been land stewards in Enniskillen, Ontario since 1929. In June 2005 the dairy herd was replaced with a certified organic beef herd. The breeds that were selected had a quiet disposition, good mothering ability and excellent meat quality. Currently grazing on our pastures are Red and Black Aberdeen Angus, Hereford, Murray Greys, Maine Anjou, Scottish Highlands, Belted Galloways and one remaining mascot from the Holstein herd - "Linen". This information came from their web page that you can find here.
I love that shade of red. It looks really nice with the green grass and blue sky too!
ReplyDeleteI am «Louis la Vache» and I approve of the image of one of my bovine cousins being on the wall of this charming barn...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful old barn...reminds me of my childhood in Pennsylvania.
ReplyDeleteA very professisonal looking barn -- you think 'they know their business and do it right!;
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of some of these breeds. Farming is like another universe to me. But I'm not so much of a city girl that I don't appreciate barns. they are such wonderful structures. Thanks for visiting and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo. Lovely barn.
ReplyDeletevery pretty. (:
ReplyDeletei like this one a lot and i love the picture of the cow on the side :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a very nice looking barn, but what is really neat is that they have a website filled with so much information!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a beautiful barn! I hope I can remember to come back here to follow that link when I have more time.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful red barn and the painting of the cow on the side wall adds to the charm!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fine looking barn!
ReplyDeleteI went to school with a large family of Bowman's. They were loggers. :)
I really like the hay 'elevator' in place and the cow picture on the side.
Hi Andy,
ReplyDeleteThey've taken good care of the barn & what a beauty she is... love that stone foundation!
Thank for joining =)
Very much similar to the barn architecture common here in Wisconsin... Larry
ReplyDeleteYour barn and silo this week are wonderful. It looks like they are in the process of moving the hay up to the hayloft. Love the picture of the cow on the side and the pretty blue sky above. genie
ReplyDeleteIt's a classic - the shape, the color are very nice. I like the stone foundation too!
ReplyDeleteFunny, I never heard of Enniskillen until very recently, despite spending a fair bit of time not too far from there. Would these Bowman's be who Bowmanville (which is where I spend that time) is named after?
