And the colour for this year's haylage is.....

Purple!!

After the excitement of last year's pink wrap in aid of breast cancer this year we are wrapping in purple for well child!

Things are really starting to move on here now. We have some second cut ryegrass hay (first cut was haylage for a racehorse trainer customer).

We are baling plenty of these little PITAs for horsey customers (until last year we hadn't baled any of these for YEARS but they are back in high demand!)

Combining has started but only for crimping so far

First cut silage was finished a while ago

The sheds are filling up quickly and we have another heavenly day today!! Just thought I would share

We are surrounded by pink haylage bales but I've never seen or heard of the purple ones before.

I love haymaking time

Love the purple! Those little PITAs are what single owners at DIY yards buy, the local hay supplier brings in 100 bales every week to our yard.

pink here as well. Our farmers must be so out of date with this years fashion of purple!

Love the purple

I used to buy small bales but they just got used so fast I couldn't keep up so I get round bales

Pink around here too

Yup, we're pink, with a few green ones. And, rather confusingly, some black ones, too. It is haylage, the wrap ran out.

Pink is so last season haha!

We have a mix, we were limited to one pallet of pink last year as it was so in demand!
