Need to buy straw.

16 years ago

Does anyone in the Auburn/Syracuse area know where I can buy bales of straw? I have to put down some grass seed ASAP and I need to protect the seed from the hot sun as well as the problem of the seed migrating when I water. This is a strange question for me to ask because I live in farm country. I can't find any farmers with straw to sell!

I know Hafners had some, but I don't know where to find farmers selling any.

Thanks for the info. I found some today at a Country Max. Now, I hope I can grow some grass in stead of weeds!
