Urgent request for small bale hay
« on: March 24, 2018, 06:21:49 pm »
We’re desperately trying to find some small bale hay, Crediton area of Devon. Our usual supplier had none and despite finding some elsewhere our oh so fussy sheeep won’t touch it. We’re close to lambing and really need a few sweet smelling bales, please

If they'll take haylage, Whitehouse Farms have been supplying Mole Avon and others with excellent small bale haylage this winter.  (Actually, they may have hay too, I haven't asked as I'd got a source of local hay.  They do straw too, which I've also been buying, and which both the cattle and sheep love.)  I know they supply Mole Avon at Okehampton, likely they supply others that would be nearer to you too.

Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
