We specialize in premium-grade hay for the equine community (as well as hay for sheep, goats and cattle). Our hay comes in several convenient formats including: small square bale bundles, compressed bales by the pallet and large 3x4x8' bales. We also now supply bulk shavings and sawdust bedding in pallet tote format.
Sunshine Hay Co. is officially one-year old! We are so grateful for our current roster of customers, thank you! For those of you that have heard about us but have yet to try our product (and service), we are offering FREE DELIVERY on your first order. Give us a call, we love what we do!
Because we specialize in equine-grade hay, we only bring home hay of the highest quality. Some call it "premium" some call it "supreme". We call it necessary. Find a bad bale? We replace no-questions asked!
Our shavings are sourced as a byproduct from local mills in BC. Instead of ending up as waste in landfills, they are cleaned, kiln dried and packed into large totes for sustainable use in livestock bedding, agriculture, landscaping, and composting. The shavings are a uniform product that are compressed into 4x4 bales in totes for convenient handling, delivery and storage. Totes weight are approx. 800 lbs or 7 yards of shavings and 1000 lbs for sawdust fines.
Our barley straw is SUPER clean & soft. You do not get any cleaner than this which means no seeds so perfect for garden beds or landscape erosion control or comfy bedding for you livestock. Each bale flakes apart easily. Save big by buying in 21-bale bundles!
Alfalfa hay is a nutrient-dense legume hay rich in protein and calcium, making it a premium choice for various livestock. Alfalfa provides essential vitamins and minerals. This hay is particularly beneficial for adult horses that are in heavy work, underweight, or lactating mares, goats, sheep, and cows, providing the necessary nutrients for milk production while its low fiber content helps in maintaining their digestive health.
Orchard Grass Hay is a highly palatable and nutritious grass hay that is well-suited for a wide range of farm animals, including horses, cows, sheep, goats, and llamas. Known for its soft texture and sweet aroma, Orchard Grass provides moderate fiber content and low protein, making it an excellent choice for maintaining digestive health and overall well-being. Its fine stems and green color indicate high quality, ensuring that animals receive essential nutrients without excessive calories.
Timothy Hay is a high-quality grass hay known for its soft texture and high leaf content. Its tender consistency and sweet aroma make it particularly appealing to horses, sheep, and goats. The increased leaf content of the 2nd cut provides additional nutrients, supporting overall health and energy levels in these animals. Timothy Hay is ideal for animals requiring more energy and protein, promoting growth, milk production, and overall vitality in horses, sheep, and goats.
Teff hay is high in fiber and low in non-structural carbohydrates (NSC), making it an excellent choice for horses prone to metabolic issues such as insulin resistance or laminitis. Its soft texture and palatable taste ensure that horses readily consume it, promoting proper digestion and gut health. Additionally, Teff hay's balanced nutritional profile supports healthy coat condition and energy levels without contributing to excess weight gain making it ideal for easy keepers.
We got into the hay business for perhaps the same reasons you are on this website. We often found it difficult to source local hay when we needed it. We also realized bringing it back ourselves in our pickup truck on our runs into the city wasn't practical nor was organizing partial freight shipments independently.
Luckily, Kurt grew up on a farm in Saskatchewan and has a lot of experience with making and storing hay. Our large dry storage facility conveniently located in upper Gibsons stocks a variety of quality hay for pickup or delivery.
Our focus is on providing consistent quality, timely communication and friendly customer service... all with our reliable Sunshine smile!
Sunshine Hay Co. offers premium horse-grade small square bales, compressed bales and bale bundles. We do also accommodate ad-hoc big-bale orders for larger farm operations. We offer easy pickup in Upper Gibsons and delivery on larger orders.
