Anybody know where they might be raking any right now? Buddy of mine's place near Sardis finished up before I could get down there. I need about 150 bales, so trying to save a little bit of money. I know I can go to lowes, etc but I would much rather buy it from a landowner wholesale. I live in Birmingham, but don't mind traveling if needed

I think George Barber has several farms near Elberta on Perdido Bay.

10-4, might be a little too far from birmingham. hopefully i can find somebody within a couple hours of b'ham.

The best pine straw is either longleaf or slash. Don't know how much of it is grown from Montgomery north.

i agree, i usually find somebody around the selma area. hopefully somebody's got a lead on some

Hoffman and Dan Rhyne used to sell some. Look for Benton Farms in Benton (hwy 80 between Selma and Mtgy). They used to bale quite a bit I thought

Thanks for the info, I will look them up and call tomorrow

Surfside Sod Farm Cropwell/Pell City Area. They sell it by the bale.

They are puting it out like crazy right now. They are getting things together for the Indy/Grand Am race in April.

Every since I was a kid, we raked our own.
Unless you NEED bales, find someone with pines in their yard and have at it.

If your willing to rake it you can have all you can take from my farm in Maplesville. Its easy access to the road, pines have been thinned. If you want to come and get it you would have to do it quick I am scheduled for a burn, the forester is just waiting for the right wind to keep the smoke off highway 82.

The boy scouts in Chelsea are selling it. They have a tractor trailer full of it AR the Shell station down here. I believe they will deliver it too. Buying from them will help a good cause.

unfortunately i have to use bales or rolls due to the location or i would take up the offers of raking my own. Thanks for the offers though!

I have a buddy that sells wholesale for a living. Im sure he wouldn't mind helping you out. Went to school together.
