Mary:
As of December 1, 2013, Standlee will have a limited amount of GMO Alfalfa and Alfalfa blended products in retail outlets. GMO Alfalfa could be found in cubes, pallets, chopped or bales.
Standlee Premium Western Forageā¢ recognizes and respects that consumers appreciate a variety of product choices. Therefore, Standlee provides non-GMO straight Timothy Grass and Orchard Grass options across formats. (IE: Orchard Grass Pellets, Timothy Grass Pellets & Bales).
Thanks

Natalie said:Thanks Mary. Their answer is very interesting. I can't imagine anyone going out of their way to buy GMO alfalfa products! It's good to know, though, that they will have non-GMO products. Probably at twice the price now too.
Seedfork said:I thought one reason Alfalfa was recommended is because it processed a natural growth stimulator. don't think grass or hay does.
fiwit said:My Tractor Supply Co. sells Standlee Alfalfa Pellets -- I just left them a message via their website asking if they use roundup-ready alfalfa. I'll let you guys know what I hear (they said it could be 2 business days)

virginiarose said:So if I buy Timothy or Orchard Grass Pellets it should be non-GMO? Are we good??

Some things may solve themselves: "....There's mounting evidence linking glyphosate to infertility..."
Susan, why not just get some good organic cow manure, or use fish emulsion and seaweed?
I mentioned Fertrell fertilizer previously and that also contains the rock dusts.
Rock dusts are often overlooked, but are hugely important in plant health and growth.
The Albrecht Papers has a good study on the issue for those wanting more info.
