Joe Stolzfus (amish feed place) on Rt 236 has some squares starting at $5.80ish a bale. He usually has some on hand but it comes and goes...

Does anyone know if the hay auction is really this Saturday, or is it next Saturday (4/14). Thanks


Def this Sat; I'm a board member. Starts at 12:00. Always the first and third Saturdays of the month. April is our last month of sales.

Hope to see you there!

By the end of this month and into the first part of May, they should be getting a first cut on hay. You may want to wait a couple of weeks and everyone should have plenty. :howdy:

so it was pricey again? That auction won't last long if the hay dealers keep putting high minimums on their hay, only the onsie twosies will buy, and much of it will sit. That's too bad. I'd LOVE to support it but certainly can't afford 45-50 a round bale when i buy 20-25 at a time. I'll drive an hour to get it for half that.

It went so high not because of the minimums but because there wasn't much hay there. Almost every single bale sold. I bought three large square bales but that was it. Everything else went well above the mins. Hopefully we will have more hay at the last sale later this month.

The auction before that, every bale sold too. CRAZY!

What part of "there is not much hay around" are you all not understanding..I have been here 20 yrs..and have always had to pay TOP DOLLAR in the winter..fact is not enough local farmers to support the local crazy ass horse peeps...

Unfortunately, it is only going to get worse. A lot of farmers who typically grow hay will not be growing any this year. They are now growing corn because with gasahol, it is more profitable.

And those that do cut and sell it are KEEPING it specifically for winter/late winter sales (verbatim according to some) hence more money.
Very sad state of affairs.

The guys I deal with are NOT doing that...I get it for the same price summer or winter..but some do you are right..and when they run out I have to get PA or NY hay...and pay..
