I wanted to sow something in a recently cleared area on the property. I decided to try out some alfalfa seeds since future plans include raising my own forage for rabbits and future goats. Having never seen it in person, I’m sharing my experience with you! The seeds are tiny and 5 lbs worth of alfalfa looks like more than I thought. First picture is the bag sitting on a golf cart steering wheel. You can barely see the individual seeds! Second picture is after I threw several handfuls on the ground…you can’t see them at all once they are sown. Five pounds of alfalfa seeds cost me $36 so I’m really hoping they do well, unlike the corn I tried that got eaten by squirrels and wild pigs. It started raining at dark so hopefully they don’t float away!
