Upgrading Pride Ranch - Clearing Out The Hay Storage Area

We begin to clear out or clean out the hay storage area to make way for some upgrades.

Fire can be very cleansing. In the future, think about a spot old hay can be taking to make compost/mulch

[@PrideRanch]

Very good idea!! I'm still kinda of new. How do you make compost/mulch?

[@johnkemp4370]

You pile it up, put occasional water on it, and mix it up. Easy with a loader tractor

Another nice thing with all the rain this year - minimal-to-no burn bans allowing lots of cleanup to happen.

[@PrideRanch]

Yes indeed! The rain at my place has come at just the right amount and at the right intervals. Curious and nervous about what the next few months look like.

I see a Hay plastic wrapper or an old drill pipe pole barn style roof in the future lol, but for real ask a neighbor you know farmer and ranchers are all like family man, I watch another channel called the Veggie Boys there up north some in PA but they used to all borrow equipment from there neighbor and they lend it also but they just started wrapping there bales and went from small square bales to the big rolls in last a couple of years, you should watch some when your not busy it is interesting to learn how others do things in this world!

[@PrideRanch]

Nice!! I just searched them and I'm watching. Love learning new things and learning from others.

You couldn't have stacked the hay on those pallets you were burning?

[@PrideRanch]

Great question!!! No. Tried it already. They just end up breaking

Hillsboro, TX

[@chalkrockranch]

I cringe watching you throw those pallets in there. You'll eventually find all those nails, just hopefully not in your tractor and truck tires.

[@PrideRanch]

I wish I had of thought of that. Hope I don't have this issue but you are absolutely right.

[@chalkrockranch]

@@PrideRanch Unfortunately I learned the hard way.
