Thanks to a great team of friends and family we have successfully made our first batch of meadow hay from 2023.
Thanks to a great team of friends and family we managed to navigate a broken down tractor and the threat of rain and thunderstorms to make some fine traditional meadow hay from one of our fields. There was a lot of improvisation including the kind borrowing of a neighbour’s tractor and the use of our sheep trailer (instead of our hay cart) to get the hay indoors but it all worked out really well.
Fingers crossed we will be able to take our main crop in the coming weeks which has even more variety of flowers and grasses.
