The Hay Truck is Here


The horses at Fish Bowl Farm eat orchard grass hay. It is delicious and nutritious, bright green and clean smelling. When the hay truck comes down the driveway we hear and see it of course, but the smell is the best part! The horses and I all track it as it comes down the hill - watching with our ears forward and heads up. Coco always whinnies, and sometimes another horse or two does also. The 2 men from Dayville Hay & Grain park right by the feed room and unload it, stacking it carefully and efficiently so it all fits well. Today we got six tons, enough to last at least 2-3 months, depending on how much we all work and how many horses are on the farm. I wish you could smell and taste it!!
