Meyer Moment: Seasonal Shift
Let’s take a Meyer Moment to talk about the seasonal shift! The autumnal equinox has arrived, meaning fall has officially begun for the Northern Hemisphere. As the season shifts, the sun will begin to rise later and nightfall will approach sooner. Now is the time to layer up in a cozy sweater and hot mug of coffee for your morning chores.
Most believe the fall foliage and amount of eggs your hens lay is due to the change in weather, a common misconception, it’s actually a result of the amount of daylight.
