Hay Y'all began in 2015 as a way to bring high quality hay at affordable prices to Aiken, SC. Today, we sell hay at wholesale prices direct to consumers, as well as through dealers and feed stores.
​
There are 3 elements to how we work:
1. We listen to insightful customer feedback and use this to improve our products
2. We work with growers who listen to feedback and use this to improve their products
3. We focus relentlessly on cost-efficiency . . . and share this savings with our customers
This process has enabled us to identify-source-develop other nutritional products, including alfalfa and beet pulp pellets, whole golden flax, yellow peas, and a grain-free, soy-free equine feed with an interesting omega 3:6 ratio. What started as a ‘this can be offered for less $’ became, ‘I can do this better, and for less $, after learning and doing again, and again, . . .’
​
We offer the ability for customers to pickup hay about 6 days a week at a lower price than can be found, consistently, in the area, on an equivalent bale sourced from a similar geography. The consumer price value heuristic is something potential customers have to overcome, given our low prices. We encourage skeptics to stop by the barns . . . in a slower moment . . . look at the hay, weigh the hay, and try feeding the hay. We understand a feeding program is multi-faceted, horses have different needs, and we work with an equine nutritionist as needed to dive into tough cases.
We face the challenges of grower inventory communication, crop volume variations, and client demand with an iterative, interactive approach, and as time passes, find ourselves in more of a belt-and-suspenders position when a single grower of hay cant load for a few days, or doesn’t put up as much in a single year, or inventory starts running short.
Are you operating a storefront and looking for consistent quality grass hay with a pretty color and desirable texture? Are you feeding a herd, or know some people who are, and are challenged to find consistent alfalfa with thin stems and lots of leaf? Mix of grass and alfalfa? Heavier on 1 than the other? Over 10 years of relationship building have positioned us on price-quality-volume to be collaborative. From truckloads of a single type to truckloads of multiple types to less-than-truckload quantities, we have options that might be helpful additions to your current selections.
