We try to buy local as much as possible, but hay isn't always easy to find locally grown here in New Mexico, so we do end up buying ours from places like Colorado.<br />I don't think I truly understood all the work that goes into harvesting such a huge amount of hay, though. How lucky you are to be able to be so hands-on with the hay you feed your horses...and a great way to save some money in the process (though you make up for it in time and hard work, right> lol!) Of course, with an A/C and radio you're not suffering too bad. hehe! <br /><br />Very cool. Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7824875335060501671.post-21857769581641381132009-07-14T08:40:42.525-07:002009-07-14T08:40:42.525-07:00It's almost time for me to make my annual jour...It's almost time for me to make my annual journey to your area to buy hay for the winter, because I DO like to be involved with my hay, to the point of meeting the folks who grow it and buying it as close to out-of-the-field as I can manage! <br /><br />Do you have any farmers to recommend? I usually just check the little nickel once I arrive in Ellensburg, but would happily take a local expert's opinion instead! you can email me privately : <br />aarenex (at) haikufarm (dot) netAareneXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17569818745110332355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7824875335060501671.post-63863151271834796442009-07-11T05:31:56.444-07:002009-07-11T05:31:56.444-07:00That is a totally awesome story.

It amazes me how technological advances have altered the face of farming - I can only imagine how farmers managed all this in the days pre-hydraulics, pre-computer, pre-automated anything.<br />As for air conditioned tractors - only in their dreams! (But I bet those wide-open fields feel twice as hot when you have to leave the tractor to fix the baler!)Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08231007979360748217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7824875335060501671.post-53329010270413817962009-07-10T11:05:59.793-07:002009-07-10T11:05:59.793-07:00That looks like a good deal for all involved.
