June in Western New York means hay season! This is year 3 of me running our own farm and each year we’re getting “better” at predicting our hay needs and storage space. This year I think we’ll finally have gotten our act together.
Storage:
In years past my storage space was limited to one 11×11 foot stall. Amazingly I could squeeze 100 bales into that little space. OH yeah, you’re looking at the queen of stacking hay. This year we have plenty of space. The center of our barn is 18’x35’ and I have been using it as a run-in for the horses. Before then It was filled with junk and clutter accumulated from previous owners.
The horses have now been evicted, the floor raked and pallets are laid out. I’m ready for hay! I’m hoping to fit 3-400 bales in here with room for a walking path and air flow.
Here’s a photo of the new space and Goliath looking in wondering why he can’t play in there any more.
