Rainy days make the fields happy! We only receive 7-10″ of rain annually in our region. Every drop is important to the health of the grasses.
Rainy weather also makes us happy our hay yards have a deep basalt rock base to keep the bottom bales off the ground and that the hay stacks are fully covered to protect them from the weather. When the tarp is pulled back the bales are still as green, sweet smelling and nutritious as when they were put up.
