Horse farms along the Connecticut River

East Haddam runs along the east bank of the Connecticut River, with the Salmon River cutting through it, from Moodus and Millington down to Hadlyme near Gillette Castle State Park. Most of the town is still woods and fields, so you'll see small horse farms, backyard barns, goats and sheep on nearly every back road.

Riders use Cockaponset State Forest across the river, which has bridle trails, and the Airline and Salmon River trails near Moodus and East Hampton. Showtime Stables in Moodus and plenty of private barns keep horses in town all winter, and that's when hay matters most.

“We have a long driveway and a large trailer truck cannot turnaround at the barn… the text messaging let us know periodically with updates our delivery time. Tim was the driver and brought the forklift down the driveway and put the pallets where we wanted them.”

— Mary M., East Haddam, CT

“I ordered some local hay as well this year, and horses refused to eat it… there's no doubt that my horses like the HayNow hay.”

— Hayley P., East Haddam, CT

Delivery notes for East Haddam

Plenty of East Haddam barns sit at the end of long gravel driveways with no room to turn a tractor trailer. That's fine: the driver parks at the road and drives the forklift down to your barn, like he does for Mary M. Tell us about your driveway, a soft lawn or a low wire when you order.

The forklift on our truck sets each pallet in your ground-level storage spot. We don't hand-stack bales. On delivery day you can follow the truck at buyhay.ai/track-order.

How much winter hay for a East Haddam barn?

In Connecticut, most horses eat hay for about 150 to 180 days a year. Plan on about 2% of body weight a day, plus about 10% for waste. For one 1,000 lb horse, that comes to about 77 to 92 of our 43 lb bales, or 5 to 6 pallets. One pallet feeds that horse for about 5 weeks, so you can order a pallet or two at a time instead of storing a whole winter. Try our how much hay does a horse need calculator for your own herd.
