We have sold hay, straw and greenfeed to customers across Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Northwest Territories. From Calgary in the south to Yellowknife in the north, from the Princeton Region in the west to Wiseton, SK in the east, customers have come to appreciate our fine hay and friendly service. The feedback from our customers continues to be a real encouragement to us. Most of previous years' customers keep coming back for their current year's needs.
International sales to the United States of America and other countries are referred to our export agent who handles the negotiations and logistics on our behalf.
Prices vary with week to week local market conditions and estimated protein content, bale weight, condition, etc. Delivery is available from rates as low as $10.00 per round bale (fluctuates with current fuel price and varies with size of load, bale weight, distance, etc.) and $1.00 per small square bale. Our load sizes range from 1 to 34 bales for rounds and 20 to 1000 for small squares. Round bales weighed to date range from 1,000 to 1,800 pounds with most of them weighing 1,150 to 1,350 lb.
Moisture content is below 15% on most bales at time of baling. Most of the feed analyses show moisture to be about 10%.
Feed analysis: Done on a request basis. To view some of our feed analyses click here.
Friends and neighbours who put up first cut hay with their own equipment in small squares look to us to assist them in the marketing of their hay.
I
have been a hay grower since I started haying with my father on
his farm at Bentley in the late 1950s. It has always been a joy
to produce the best hay that we could as we worked with the meteorologists
who endeavor to give us the best forecast from day to day.
We look forward to hearing from you via telephone at 403-896-1762.
I answer all emails at dballan@telus.net.

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Don Allan, a long time farmer and let me tell you, I love what I do. From 1972 to 1987 I operated up to 3,000 acres of land in the Bentley area until the farm sold in 1987. In 2003 I returned to farming southwest of Sylvan Lake on a mixed grain and hay farm with a friend. In 2008 we split the operation into grain owned and operated by my friend and hay operated by myself. That year we put up 800 acres of first cut and 400 acres of second cut hay in both large round and small square bales.
