I would need the whole file on my desk and some time to go over it to know what's what in this case. I remain skepical, that things are not as they might appear..

Their farm is in New Brunswick. This is their website; Updates | ScytheConnection


This longer video Hay in a Day - Part 2 - YouTube

goes through the process of cutting with a scythe and stacking it in the field to dry.

Looks like Mama's working barefoot also. That one is about as exciting as watching paint dry though.


Here is another of my favorite haying videos to watch. Mowing Hay with Horses - YouTube

There is a guy near me that has been advertising one of these horse drawn sicklebar mowers for $950. Ad has been running a while.

That's the way they did it before balers. My grandpa Hall fell off one of those piles and broke his hip. Forever had a limp.

Next step was balers in place. Then moving balers.
