Bartering
What is "bartering"? From dictionary.com: To trade goods or services without the exchange of money.
Bartering is a lost art in our society, but one that is gaining in favor. If you have watched TV or read your newspaper, you may have heard of the man who traded up from a red paper clip to a house. Of course, there were many steps in between and that's the exception rather than the rule, but bartering gives both parties an opportunity to win.
If you see something you would like on our website, please feel free to offer something you think we might like in trade. For instance, horses eat hay and grain, all year. In dry years, an offer of hay for a horse would probably be welcome. I have listed below some things that we might consider trading.
