Feed run to the Hawkes Bay drought affected farmers

Hi everyone, there is a small group here in Mid Canterbury organising a feed run to the Hawkes Bay drought affected farmers. Seeing the HUGE success of the Rapafeedrun...we felt we were also in a position to help out.
Any amount would be greatly appreciated...5, 10 bales, anything you can spare.
First preference is for baleage to feed Sheep and Cattle.
We have been in communication with a Facilitator in Rural Support Trust who is steering us in the right direction.
Grant Perkins of HINDS CARTAGE is on board to help in transport logistics. All freight will be covered.
Please spread the word, if you can help at all, email on

canterburyfeedrun@gmail.com

Once again, anything would be greatly welcomed, please share.

Regards Ben and Mary-Anne Stock, Ashburton
