Orchard Alfalfa Mix
$37.50
Delivery across North Central Florida or pickup at our Williston farm. How delivery works.
Orchard alfalfa mix hay, Nevada-grown, combining high-fiber orchard grass with nutrient-dense alfalfa in a single 3-string bale. The right choice for performance horses, hunter-jumpers, eventers, working ranch horses, and hard keepers who need more calories and protein than straight grass provides but would founder on pure alfalfa. A natural step up from timothy or orchard when a horse drops weight in heavy work. Every bale lab-tested. Delivered across Williston, Ocala, Gainesville, and the WEC show corridor. If your trainer keeps telling you your horse needs more groceries but the vet is nervous about straight alfalfa, this is the blend that splits the difference.

“Best place around to buy hay. The owner and employees are the best. Very helpful, accommodating even when I came late they still got me hay. Can't say enough about this place.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the nutritional benefits?
This mix typically offers moderate protein (around 12–16%) with balanced energy and fiber. It provides more nutrition than straight grass hay, without being as rich as full alfalfa.
Is this hay soft and palatable?
Yes. Orchard grass is known for its soft texture, and when blended with leafy alfalfa, it creates a highly palatable feed most horses readily accept.
Do you offer delivery or bulk pricing?
Yes—contact us for current availability, delivery options, and bulk pricing. sales@farmersdirecthay.com
