I was born and raised on Mardouw, a farm just outside Bonnievale. I know the dairy yards, the lucerne blocks, the milking schedules, and which gravel road becomes a river bed in July. Bonnievale is where the business started, and it's still where most of the hay-bale work happens.
Bonnievale's dairy belt runs through everyone. We bale lucerne, oats, and grass through the season, and we sell direct to the dairies that need fodder year-round. If you're running cows here, you've probably already met one of our trailers. Owner-on-site means the rate, the cure, and the bale density match what the operation actually needs.
Hay baling and hay sales lead the list — both fodder for the dairies and mulch for orchard / vineyard floors over the dry summer. Contract herbicide spraying through the wine blocks. Slug pellet work where mulch beds attract them.
Mardouw is just outside town, and I've worked the back roads of Bonnievale since I was young. We're at 210 km from the Gordon's Bay base — about two and a half hours on a clear morning — but in practice we're running here several days a week through harvest, so the truck's never far.
Hay sales are first-come; bale supply is finite. Call early in the season if you want a fixed allocation through summer for your dairy.
Pick up the phone. One call usually settles it.
