How We Make Our Hay

This week we will give a simple outline of how we produce our hay and later on go back and discuss each step in more detail. 1. Assess the field. This is usually done in the fall and/or spring. We determine, based on yield totals from the previous season, if any amenities needs to be added to the soil. Sometimes we will have soil samples taken to help determine a field’s overall status. If it is a newly-acquired field, we may prep the field for seeding or clear out over-growth of unwanted

Hay.
It's what we know.
It's what we do.
Specializing in small squares.
And sharing knowledge with folks like you.
