On top of the vegetables we also bale hay through the summer and sell it through the winter. We bale mostly small square bales that are wire tied. If you can imagine it we actually work in the greenhouse, sell at farm markets and bale hay through the summer. It makes for a very busy summer here at VanScoy Farms.
If you are in need of hay for your horses, beef cattle, or dairy cattle or any other farm animal we have something to fill your requirements. Below is a list of what we have and the prices of it. We also offer delivery and can unload it into your barn if you need us to.
1st cutting Small Square Bales that are 75% Orchard Grass 25% Alfalfa that are $3.75 a bale.
1st cutting Round Bales that are 75% ORchard Grass 25% Alfalfa. They are 4X4 ft and net wrapped and cost $30 a bale.
3rd and 4th cutting Small Square Bales that are 75% alfalfa 25% Orchard Grass. These are a little faded so they are discounted to $4.00 a bale.
3rd and 4th cutting Small Square Bales that are 75% alfalfa 25% Orchard Grass. These are high quality bales and are $5.50 a bale.
If you are in need of some hay feel free to give us a call at 937-363-3205.
Thank you for your interest from everyone at VanScoy Farms.
Our family has always been very involved in the business and have used the greenhouse as their FFA project. Thanks to this Wesley and Matthew have won several state and national awards throughout their highschool career. Also our youngest son Phillip has started his projects and will hopefully be winning some awards of his own here in the next couple years. Also our farm has hosted the 2005 National Hyrdoponic Tour and several Farm Bureau Tours since we built the greenhouse in 2004. Here are some of the awards that Wesley and Matthew have won.

Our Ohio came to visit with us on the farm last Friday. Do you know how much film time it takes to create a TV program? They spent over 8 hours filming the boys picking tomatoes, cucumbers, and strawberries and Bill telling the world about Hydroponics.
Check here soon for news of what's happening on our farm. Right now we are trying to get the greenhouses ready for winter, selling hay and our Produce Subscriptions (CSAs) and getting ready for "Our Ohio" to come and film a follow-up segment from when they visited a few years ago. Even though it is pretty close to winter here in Ohio, we're also doing three farmers markets a week. Whew!
Life on the farm is never dull and we'll be sharing our experiences with you soon. Meanwhile, stop by and tell us "hi" at the farmers markets mentioned on our home page, and pick up some yummy local produce for the holidays. We'll be happy to meet you!
