Seed cleaning and dressing

When possible we like to use some of our own wheat seeds to plant for next year's harvest.  This means they have to go through a process of cleaning and dressing.  An artic lorry arrives on the farm and the side is pulled up to reveal the works - too complicated for me to understand, but the wheat is in a semi tipped trailer behind and is drawn up into the machine.   The bag in the photograph is the finished product and there is another yellow bag for the rubbish.

Baby sat this evening while T and K went out for a meal.
