first cutting hay
It seems to me that farming can be beautiful in more ways than one and sometimes I wonder if farmers know what strong patterns they are creating. One thing is for sure. While the rest of us are hiding out during this Corona-19 pandemic the farmers are out there doing business as usual feeding their families and the nation. The first cutting of hay (among the horse world anyway) is always the best, (This is because it is lower in nonstructural carbohydrates (sugars and starches) and is typically softer, greener and leafier. And first cutting hay may also have more digestible fiber than later season grasses due to the influence of cooler temperatures.) and I was always happy if I could get it for my horses!
