Granby 4-H is FUN!

Hi! My name is Luke Osowiecki and I am a member of Granby 4-H. This is my third year in 4-H. I have learned a lot in 4-H, like how to make cheese, how to take better pictures and how to show my dog.

Ask your Friendly Farmer

Dear Friendly Farmer,
My daughter has a pet rabbit and we like to feed it a little hay from time to time. Since we only need a little bit at a time, I usually just buy a bale at my local feed store, but the last time I went, hay DOUBLED in price! What gives? Can I get it cheaper from a local farmer?
Signed,
Hay Now
