STRAW

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to organize a new straw buying co-op to get chicken bedding to East Van. Of course, it is also fall mulching season.

 

Cost would be $9 - $12/bale (depending how many get ordered) and it would be delivered to ~23rd & Main on a Friday. It would have to be picked up on Friday evening or Saturday during the day.

 

Please respond with how many bales you'd be interested in. This could happen as early as this weekend, but might get pushed out to the 28-29th or even the first weekend in November if people can't swing Halloween weekend.

 

Thanks,

Alyssa

p.s. If you already responded on Chicken Coop Co-ops or elsewhere, you don't need to respond again.

Hi everyone, final price is $10/bale and pickup is at 4th & Woodland (~Commercial-Broadway). They will be available starting Tuesday Nov. 8 until Saturday Nov. 12. Let me know if I should reserve one (or more) for you.
