Guys, we bought some property a couple months ago and we have a ridge that is cleared off and there is now fairly tall hay all over it. I started to bush hog it and made two strips down it (for my boys to ride their dirtbikes) and then got to thinking, "this looks an awefull lot like hay and maybe I shouldn't just mow it down". I've seen the last several days, guys all up and down the road the property is on out cutting hay. I don't know anything about hay or processing it or anything.
I've thought about asking one of them if they'd like to come and cut it, because I really don't have any use for it, other than I may need some in a few months to cover when I sew more grass. How does that work when someone else comes and cuts your hay? What kind of a deal do you normally work out - aside from just giving it to them for nothing? Maybe they come cut it and bail it and I keep several bails for my own use, if I need it for grass later on or what?
