___________________________________________________
Today the buying crowd was a good size. The market was generally steady to weaker. The alfalfa that was average quality was lower today but the better alfalfa sold fully steady. The grass was also slightly lower. Bedding was mostly steady.
The Rock Valley Hay Auction CO. is happy to announce that we have found a new location! We are no longer accepting hay at our current location. In preparation for our new location, we will not be accepting any hay to be dropped off and we will not be having an auction on August 29th. We plan on having our first auction at the new location on September 5th at 12:30 (3110 Eagle Ave). Please watch our Facebook page for more information about when we will be accepting hay.

I saw a homeless man & asked him if I gave him $20 would he buy beer? He said no he hadn’t had a beer in years. Then I asked him if I gave you $20 will you buy car parts? He said no, he got rid of his racecar 15 years ago. So, then I said I’ll do you better than $20.. I’ll take you home & get you all cleaned up; my wife will cook a fantastic meal for you then I’ll bring you back & still give you $20! He asked me, “won’t she get mad?” I said it didn’t matter. I just wanted her to see what happens to a man when he stops drinking & building race cars.

Today we had a nice smaller run of hay. We had a nice buying crowd in. The auction seemed to stabilize somewhat. Although the market is in the lower price range, it seemed to have more consistency from load to load.

Today we had a lot of good quality grass and alfalfa in. The market is still low. Good buyer crowd but not too aggressive. Alfalfa was steady and grass a little lower. We will continue to have auctions across from the old haylot- 2713 14th St. for the next couple weeks.

Why did the farmer keep finding coins during the storm? It must have been the change in the weather!
