Spring Has Sprung

Spring Has Sprung

Apr 12, 2023 | News

Grandpa’s Best is committed to providing the highest quality hay for your pets, and that starts with our farming practices. As spring progresses, we have been working diligently to create a strong foundation for this year’s hay crop.

Our team has completed several essential, behind-the-scenes steps to prepare for the growing season. We began by thoroughly inspecting and maintaining all of our farming equipment to ensure top operating conditions. Additionally, we tested our soil to determine if any nutrients needed to be added or adjusted before the dormant season ended. Our team is currently fertilizing the fields and assessing crop rotation to prepare for a bountiful harvest this fall.

One of the most exciting aspects of spring is seeing our fields come back to life. The sweet alfalfa has already started to turn green, and we are eagerly anticipating the planting of the rest of our crops by mid-month. In preparation for any droughts, we have tested our irrigation system and made necessary repairs.

At Grandpa’s Best, we pride ourselves on providing fresh, high-quality hay for your pets. While we eagerly await this year’s harvest, we have last year’s production in storage and ready to ship. We store all of our hay for five months before packaging to help protect your pet from RHDV; this rest period exceeds current studies of virus lifespan at room temperature and greatly minimizes the chance of transference. You can conveniently order from our online shop at gbpets.com/shop and enjoy free shipping on our entire site.

Thank you for choosing Grandpa’s Best for your pet’s hay needs. We look forward to continuing to provide you and your furry companions with the best hay varieties available.
