Ultra-Premium Horse and Livestock Hay for Every Need
We understand the time and level of care our customers take to provide their horses and livestock with the correct type of feed for their chosen lifestyle. We offer Pure Alfalfa, an Alfalfa/Orchard Grass Mix and Timothy Grass Mix hay. If you are unsure or have any questions about your animals' needs, feel free to ask us and we will work with you to find the right feed for your horse or livestock.
all small square bales of hay are around 50 lbs.
We have officially launched the 2023 hay making season! Our local weather has been perfect to allow timely first cutting of our Pure Alfalfa and Alfalfa/Orchard grass fields. Our production strategy for this year is to be quick and nimble to make timely and tender hay that offers the most nutrition and palatability for our customers. In fact, we made first cut Pure Alfalfa and Alfalfa/Orchard bales on May 21 and baled them May 23! We thank our loyal customers, the lord and mother nature for all the farm blessings.
Our big winter project this year was to clear all field perimeters and fence lines from the encroaching Honeysuckle. Over the years, the invasive plant has reduced our overall field size substantially, robbed the hay plants of available nutrition and shaded the perimeter windrows which does not allow those areas to dry hay properly. Our Honeysuckle clear cut efforts allow us to provide you with more high quality hay. Additionally, our constant proactive farm equipment maintenance program from 2022 continues to pay off for us this baling year. The equipment has been very reliable during harvesting so far. We have not had any major breakdowns and this is always a welcome blessing.
We are also extremely proud to announce that our farm will again be purchasing and donating a 2023 Warren County Fair Market Hog to the Warren County Farm Bureau Shared Harvest Program this year. This program benefits the Warren County Food Banks and provides them with hundreds of pounds of fresh, local and wholesome pork for those in need. We also thank the many other participating donors and supporters of the program. #feedingourneighbors
The chicken flock has expanded significantly in 2023. We have the largest flock that we have ever had and they are producing free range and pasture raised eggs. Our flock contains Rhode Island Reds, Americaunas, White Leghorns, Golden Comets and Plymouth Rocks. We will continue to have our delicious farm fresh eggs available for sale each week,
As longtime supporters of American Farm Bureau, we are very pleased to announce that my wife and I are both current Warren County Ohio Farm Bureau board members. In fall 2022, I joined as a board member with a special interest in Ag Policy and our Shared Harvest initiatives. My wife is in her second term as our local Vice President.
We wish a healthy and safe 2023 to all!
Update From the Farm
The Sunset Acres Farm LLC Difference
On our farm, we couple the best crop inputs with industry-leading agricultural techniques. We use best farming practices such as active field management, soil stewardship and laboratory feed analysis to ensure only the best hay is produced for our customers. We also use the latest in farming equipment technology to monitor and produce a consistent, high quality animal hay.
"Our goal and mission at Sunset Acres Farm LLC is to grow and produce ultra-premium horse and livestock hay for our passionate customers."
Farm Fresh Eggs
Our farm fresh eggs come from pasture raised, free range chickens. This means the chickens live in a safe and natural environment where they can forage, perch, nest and dust bathe with plenty of room. This also offers the chickens access to green grass, fresh air, sunshine, and social interaction. Our eggs are produced in a variety of colors and sizes. We collect eggs daily and date each container. Customers are encouraged to place regular weekly orders which can be picked up or delivered.
