Fanners say ‘hay* to Clarice Co.
Farmers in Rappahannock are banding together to aid their brethren in Clarke County, one of many areas in the state hard-hit by drought this summer.
The Rappahannock Farmer's Association has arranged for Rappahannock-grown hay to be picked up by Clarke County farmers at Bruce Vierling's warehouse (next to Settle's garage) in Flint Hill, 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Sept. 7.
So far more than 500 bales have been donated, and some farmers are even dipping into stockpiles they expected to be feeding their own cattle later in the winter. Clarke and other counties north and west of Rappahannock have been baked this summer, as have parts of northern Rappahannock. In other areas of this county, however, the growing season has been adequate.
Either drop off surplus hay in Flint Hill Sept. 7 or call the Rappahannock Farmer's Association at 987-9605 or 675-3663 for more information.
