There is plenty of hay in Oregon. Youu have to have connections, and
transporting to California will be expensive given $3+ a gallon
diesel.

I would be looking in the Christmas Valley area, or Lake County.
Klamath County will be more expensive, but there is probably hay

You want to build your relationships with the growers, not the
