This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the straw badge in Animal Care.

In this Badge Bit you will scythe a field and make at least a dozen bales of hay.


(source: Wheaton Labs Bale Press)

To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
 - you must scythe and dry green grass
 - you must make at least one dozen bales of hay

To show you've completed this Badge Bit, post pictures or a short video depicting:
 - a field that you are about to scythe
 - an action picture of harvesting/gathering the hay
 - the scythed field with the grass drying
 - the hay going into the manual baler
 - your 12 bales of hay
