Why buyers choose our alfalfa

Alfalfa is the highest-protein forage most livestock owners can buy, typically running 15–22% crude protein with strong calcium and energy. That makes it the go-to hay for lactating dairy cows, growing horses, performance horses, goats, and rabbits that need dense nutrition in every bite.

We work directly with established alfalfa growers so the hay arrives green, leafy, and properly cured — not stemmy or rained-on. Every load is matched to your use, whether you need dairy-grade or clean horse-quality alfalfa.

Bale and packaging options

We supply alfalfa as small square (two-string) bales, 3x3 and 3x4 large squares, and round bales. Tell us your storage and equipment and we'll quote the format that lands cheapest per ton at your location.
