Pastures may be growing and the horses enjoying it, but winter hay feeding isn't far away! We go through 125-150 tons of hay in round bales (at $200/ton) and about 1000-1200 square bales (at $6-8 a bale) every year - so we need to raise a lot! For [#FundraisingFriday](https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/fundraisingfriday?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZXp2N3bjVGEq4LfD3fa05FmjBJ8p2pkpzs_A9JIhSEcmuYB6AZf0LvCWWwfhlIvL64kG-mZIUrwVxfwp9uULlk3cTsx5CH0At1wrZZu3BK_tGrPnYm5Q-mv9_HZmNOfRqRLElkUyO7LDOY915B9rBzQ&__tn__=*NK-R) can we make a dent in the square bale fund so they can be paid on delivery?
