Green Manure, Feed, Paddock Mix Recipe

Planted some paddock mix yesterday:

8 pounds of Timothy:           $2.50/lb
6 pounds of White clover:    $2.80/lb
6 pounds Montebello Tall Fescue  $2.25/lb
4 pounds Orchard Grass Common #1    $1.95/lb
4 pounds Aubisque Perrenial Rye    $2.35/lb

Total cost - $67.50 - not enough to do the fields/. I need to double the order next year to do the whole lower field near the barn


Previously Bought

Cracked Corn for hens and Nelly $20.85 - full bag
Purina Laying Crumble $15.20


For Gardens:
Double Cut Red Clover:   15 pounds @ $1.80/lb - for corn field to lay fallow
Oats 1 bag @  $15 for house garden


Previously - for hens
Laying Mash $22.95 - like this stuff but much gets lost on the ground as dust.
