Liz Gray · A customer since we opened
Belleview is a southern Marion County community 10 miles south of Ocala, sitting at the junction of US-27, US-301, and US-441. It serves three distinct customers: boarding barns adjacent to the Ocala show scene, Lake Weir waterfront property owners who keep a few pleasure horses, and family farms running small herds on rural parcels east and south of town. Farmers Direct delivers hay weekly to all three from our Williston store about 30 miles away. We grow our own hay on Nevada farms, buy the rest from the surrounding western states, and source peanut hay locally from Southeast growers. Direct-farm sourcing means you skip the feed-store markup, and we test the western hay by field at Equi-Analytical.
Delivery to Belleview, FL
Belleview is in our Zone 2 at $40 flat per trip, any order size, any bale count. The route runs southeast from Williston on US-27 into Ocala, then continues south with US-301 and US-441 into Belleview (all three converge at Belleview and continue south together). The run is approximately 30 miles and 45 minutes. Lead time is 2 to 3 business days, Monday through Friday dispatch. No minimum order. Hay ordered by the 20-foot container (roughly 130 bales) ships FREE up to 40 miles, which comfortably covers Belleview, and the first 30 days of on-site storage are included. Call (352) 528-1255 with your address and order size for an exact delivery window.
From Pasture Loads to Performance Barn Deliveries
Belleview's horse-owning population is wide. Some properties are boarding barns or private show facilities that spill over from the Ocala circuit; they care about consistent nutrition, low-dust bedding, and test numbers they can hand to a trainer. Others are Lake Weir hobby farms keeping a couple of pleasure horses for weekend riding. Family farms run small mixed herds with goats, cattle, and sometimes horses on the same property. We stock the full product range so the same delivery truck can land premium show-barn hay and affordable pasture feed on the same trip. The voice of this page splits the difference because Belleview does, too.
Product Range for Show-Adjacent Barns and Pasture Farms Alike
For performance and show-adjacent barns:
- Ultra Premium Timothy at $44.50 per bale. Highest-grade Western timothy alfalfa blend we carry.
- Orchard Alfalfa Mix at $39.50 per bale. Nutrient-dense alfalfa blended with high-fiber orchard grass. The pick for intense athletes and performance horses.
- Timothy 2nd Cut at $40.50 per bale. Fine stem, leafy, low sugar. Flakes well.
For pasture farms and multi-animal properties:
- Timothy 1st Cut at $39.50 per bale. The workhorse of the catalog.
- Orchard Grass at $39.75 per bale. Great for hard keepers and picky eaters.
- Peanut Hay at $18 per bale. Value option, high in protein, locally grown.
Western hay tested by field at Equi-Analytical; peanut hay is not lab tested. Protein, NDF, NSC, moisture, and minerals. We pass the numbers to the trainer or the owner, whichever one asks.
Local Landmarks and Delivery Corridor
Belleview sits in southern Marion County, 10 miles south of Ocala, with US-27, US-301, and US-441 all converging through town. Lake Weir, a state aquatic preserve of about 5,685 acres, lies to the southeast and is a year-round recreation and fishing destination. The same weekly truck that lands in Belleview also makes stops in Summerfield, Reddick, Ocala, Dunnellon, and Hernando, so combined-order scheduling is straightforward: if a neighbor in one of those corridors is also ordering, your delivery usually books in the same run.
Direct-Farm Sourcing, No Broker Markup
The local feed stores serving Marion County are strong on bagged commercial feed, supplements, tack, and retail farm supplies. Those are their specialty and we are not competing with that. Farmers Direct specializes in hay, and specifically in direct-farm sourcing. Delmar and Trennis Ropp grow most of the hay you buy on their own Nevada farms. Peanut hay comes from specialty Southeast growers. What they cannot grow they buy from the surrounding western states. No broker in the middle, no retail feed-store markup on the bale price. We test the western hay by field, not bale by bale. The same bale that lands in a Belleview show barn comes off the same truck that lands in a Hernando pasture, and the pricing is the same on the sticker either way.
Horse Country Resources Near Belleview
Belleview sits in the county that calls itself the Horse Capital of the World. A 2024 economic study cited by the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders' and Owners' Association counts about 75,000 horses and ponies in Marion County. A few public resources close to Belleview:
- Cross Florida Greenway trails. The Marjorie Harris Carr Cross Florida Greenway has more than 79 miles of equestrian trails. Riders can start at the Santos Trailhead, and Ross Prairie and Shangri-La both offer equestrian camping.
- Florida Horse Park. A 500-acre equine and agricultural venue at 11008 S Hwy 475 in Ocala, with the Greenway's Landbridge Trailhead across the road.
- UF/IFAS Marion County Extension. 2232 NE Jacksonville Rd, Ocala. Their livestock pages cover forage for horses, equine management, bahiagrass and pasture weeds.
UF/IFAS calls bahiagrass the most common and widely used warm-season perennial grass in Florida, and it grows well in sandy, low-fertility soil. When the pasture runs short, that is where a delivered load of hay comes in.

Belleview Hay Delivery, Answered
Where can I buy hay in Belleview, FL?
Farmers Direct Hay and Feed delivers to Belleview weekly from our Williston store, about 30 miles away. We carry Nevada-sourced timothy in multiple cuts, orchard grass, teff grass for metabolic horses, alfalfa mixes, and locally grown peanut hay. Order by calling (352) 528-1255 or stop in at 21091 NE US Hwy 27, Williston, FL.
How much is hay delivery to Belleview?
Hay delivery to Belleview, FL is $40 flat (Zone 2, 25 to 40 miles from our Williston store). That applies to any order size within the zone. Hay ordered by the 20-foot container (roughly 130 bales) ships FREE up to 40 miles, with the first 30 days of on-site storage free ($25/week after). Call (352) 528-1255 to schedule.
Do you deliver to boarding barns on specific timing windows?
Yes. Boarding barns typically have specific drop windows around feed schedules and staff hours. Tell us the window when you call (352) 528-1255 and we'll coordinate. Lead time is 2 to 3 business days, Monday through Friday dispatch.
Can I see hay test results before I commit to a load?
Yes. We pull lab samples from the hay we sell regularly. Protein, NDF (fiber), NSC (sugars plus starch), moisture, and mineral content are reported. Boarding barns and show-circuit trainers ask for them every time. We send the numbers to whoever on your team handles nutrition. Call (352) 528-1255 and ask.
Do you have low-sugar hay for horses with EMS or Cushing's?
Yes. Teff Grass at $39.00 per bale is the low-NSC pick for metabolic horses, horses with insulin resistance, and horses with Cushing's. Timothy 1st Cut at $39.50 is another low-sugar option in the 8 to 10 percent NSC range. Always ask for the test results on the specific lot at order time.
Can you deliver hay by the container?
Yes. Order hay by our signature pink 20-foot container (roughly 130 bales) and we deliver it FREE up to 40 miles of Williston, which covers all of Belleview. First 30 days of on-site storage are free, then $25/week if you keep it longer. You pick the product mix, we land the container on your property, and you have on-site bulk storage that cuts per-trip delivery fees across weeks or months of feed. Most customers swap the empty for a full one before the 30 days are up. (Separate from buying a container outright; the direct sale is a different product with $150 delivery within 25 miles.) Call (352) 528-1255 to talk through a mix.
How quickly can you deliver?
Standard lead time is 2 to 3 business days from the call. Monday through Friday dispatch. For recurring orders, we can set a standing delivery that works with your feed rotation.
Do you deliver to Summerfield and The Villages too?
We deliver to Summerfield in the same Zone 2 at $40 flat. The Villages is further south and falls in Zone 3 at a custom quote, typically starting at $50. Call (352) 528-1255 with your full address for an exact quote.
