The latest news, tips and other helpful information from the Snohomish Co-op team so you can make the most of your farming.
When dealing with snow and ice, as pretty as it is, there are some concerns. When driving on the roads we trust the road maintenance crews to be clearing the roads and applying sand and ice to make our commutes possible. The same principles can be applied to our own driveways and walkways to help us deal with the weather in a safe and affordable way.
In the winter the sap from the trees travels from the branches to the roots. This retraction is for the plant's survival to get it through the harsh weather found in the winter and provide adequate nutrients through those months. This transfer of nutrients is what makes transplanting in the winter also the best time of year, especially late winter.
Your horse's coat is durable and provides a great protective layer. Their coats can be beautiful and unique with many people diligently grooming them in the dry and duster summer.
The Snohomish and Monroe Co-op stores will be closing early at 4 PM on December 14th, 2024 for our Annual Winter Holiday Party.
While supplements and Minerals are recommended to be given year round for your animals, the wintertime is a time where emphasis is needed.
One of the best ways we can take care of our animals is by being prepared. When the seasons change, the struggles that we deal with also change and as winter comes around this year the Coop wants to help you stay prepared for the cold freezes which are inevitably coming!
