Title: Hay suppliers surrey
Post by: bcnacd on February 15, 2015, 09:03:31 am

I hope this is allowed, apologies if not. I need to buy a small amount of hay and struggling to find anything decent as the last lot I got was mostly wasted by the sheep thanks to its poor quality. I only need to 5-10 small bales (enough to see 4 sheep through for a little while) and am happy to collect. Can anyone point me in the direction of a supplier in Surrey?

Thanks.

I think Whipley Manor Farm sells it - don't know whereabouts you are, but they are about 6 miles south of Guildford.

Why dont you just knock on a few farmers doors. If you give them time for a chat often most helpfull with most things.

Hello, I'm In Surrey so may be able to help!

Where abouts in Surrey are you? It's a shame I've sold out of hay this year but know plenty of people :)

Thanks.
I'm not in a very rural area so finding farmers doors to knock on can be a little tricky, but I'll bear it in mind.

That's very kind Hillview. The sheep are kept near Leatherhead. I have managed to source a small amount to last me a little while, but will need more again at some point in the future so is very helpful to know!

Ah! I'm only in reigate! Let me know when you need some more as I know quite a few people in the area :) may be able to spare a few bales by then :)
