Enough to feed my cows for a year. I could be done now if I chose to be.

now that is 'fall down go boom'


The summer camp I went to as a child was located on about 180 acres of woods and marsh near Newburyport. The camp itself had been around for over 100 years and was self sufficient, farming, fishing, oysters or clams I forget which.

When I went all of that was done away with but the curator/director still ran hay baling to support the camp. It was salt water hay, kinda neat, kinda fun, KINDA BUGGY, greenheads! But yeah growing up in a city and spending the summer with ocean, marsh, woods, boating (rowing) etc, lots of fun. The tractor was about the only modern piece of gear onsite.

"now that is 'fall down go boom'"

Yes, we were tired, but I have done as many as 650 bales in one day. Now *that* was tired.

Wheeee! I'm sure you won't be able to resist making more at some point this summer. "Just in case" :) Or, can you sell it? I have no clue how long it would keep -- more than a year?

My goal is to make another 200 bales for me, and anything over that will be for sale. It'll keep as feed hay for 2 years with proper storage, which mine is.

Hi. You don't know me. :)

I live in Townsend, MA. and I have three horses, two dogs, about a zillion cats, and a fish. heh.

Is your hay suitable for horses, or no? Yay for you having a *real* farm where you can provide your own hay!

certainly suitable for horses. Certified Organic for my small herd of little cattle.

And you sell what you have in excess? How much per bale? I don't know where you are, but would you deliver to my area, or would I need to come get it? Delivery charge (if you deliver to here)? Orchard grass mix or what? Yes, I am the girl of a billion questions, and I swear that I'm not a stalker or a bad kind of weirdo, though I certainly am weird, but not in any dangerous way...LOL.

Lemme know?
