Marler thinks he is helping to check the First Aid kits🤪 He is a bit miffed to have been told he is doing the exact opposite😬
Is it really only Monday?!🤣

Happy Monday👋

Would anyone like to hazard a guess as to where Liz might have been this weekend to take this photo?

We have the most golden wheat straw stacked from floor to rafters🌟🌾 Liz can let you know first hand that it is some of the best we have ever had as she is using it in her stables. It's absorbent, has very minimal dust and a little goes a long way😅 Available in big or small bales. Contact us for more information.

Our ryegrass haylage is still as popular as ever😁 800 bales have just left the yard ready to be distributed across Wynnstay Group stores in Monmouthshire, Herefordshire, Staffordshire and Shropshire🚚😅

We’re at the end of our shift😅 It’s been a hot day🥵 We are down on yields for 2nd cut but the silver lining is that we got more bales off the fields than we all thought we would😁 It’s a good job we love what we do😆

Hello all, Liz here👋 After a few weeks of quiet social media (but not so quiet farm activity), I have finally got a quiet moment (and some internet) to post an update of our 2025 season so far.

First of all, thank you to Matt & Emma from Valleyside Escapes Valleyside Barn for offering me their rather luxurious office space whilst we still have no internet or office phone. I'm being closely watched as you can see from the photo👀🦚

We have been very fortunate with our 1st cut haylage. Our friends up country have not been so lucky, and the shortage of grass across the nation will have quite an impact on winter feeding. We are about to start our 2nd cut, but we can already see that we will have very little to show for our hard work due to the lack of rain, which is really disheartening. I've had many conversations with our lovely customers who have had to feed much more hay/haylage this summer than previous years and are worrying about grass for the winter. It is a real problem causing a lot of worry for anyone with horses & livestock.

Although we have lack of Internet/landline for goodness knows how long we are here to give advice and help with anything haylage/hay/straw related. Contact details are:

Due to a telegraph pole being brought down across the valley on Monday morning, we are experiencing significant disruption to our internet & phone line. Liz is trying to keep up with emails, messenger & WhatsApp messages but is having to find signal on the farm which is limited.
Please use 07798 606366 for calls & WhatsApp or [email protected] for emails.

Guess what we are baling today👀

Our first cut Timothy🙌 We can hear the relieved sigh of our customers from here😃 Timothy is a very popular forage as it is naturally lower in sugar making it ideal for horses and ponies who need their sugar/starch intake restricted. It is difficult to grow and quite often won’t grow back quickly enough for 2nd cut limiting our supply. Due to it’s popularity we plant more and more each crop rotation🌾

Tom & Brad were out rowing and baling first thing this morning. Timothy dries fast anyway but this heat makes that an even bigger challenge🫣

Liz took the dogs out for an early morning walk to beat the heat and what a glorious morning it is☀️🐾 Our ryegrass bundles are all wrapped and ready to be stacked in the yard. 1st cut ryegrass is very nearly finished!
Brad has been out packing bales since super early this morning. After a few days of fixing machinery breakdowns before we can get going the last few days, it’s a refreshing start today😅
