Country Acres Hay Bale Covers: Protecting Your Hay, Safeguarding Your Horses
At Country Acres LLC, our mission is to provide horse owners with innovative solutions to common challenges. Founded by Deb, a seasoned horse trainer and breeder with over 50 years of experience, our company emerged from a personal need to protect valuable hay from the elements. Frustrated with traditional tarps and the risks they posed to her horses' health, Deb designed the Country Acres Hay Bale Cover—a durable, efficient, and reliable solution to keep hay dry and safe. Manufactured in the USA, our covers reflect a commitment to quality, practicality, and the well-being of your animals.
Why Is Protecting Your Hay So Important?
Moisture can lead to mold growth in hay, posing significant health risks to horses, including colic—a potentially fatal condition. By keeping hay dry, you not only preserve its nutritional value but also safeguard your horses' health and avoid costly veterinary bills.
What is the Country Acres Hay Bale Cover?
The Country Acres Hay Bale Cover is a form-fitting, round hay bale cover equipped with a ratchet strap at the bottom. Designed to fit individual bales or feeders containing round hay bales, it offers a secure and weather-resistant solution to protect your hay from moisture, mold, and other environmental factors.
Why Is TheirPatented “Welded" Construction Important?
Most hay tarps on the market rely on stitched seams, which naturally create tiny holes where water and moisture can seep in—especially as the material stretches over time. Country Acres LLC solves this problem with their
patented Welded seam construction,which bonds the material together without puncturing it. This unique design creates a fully waterproof barrier that resists leaks, tears, and weather damage. It’s a game-changer for hay preservation—keeping your investment dry, protected, and mold-free. When you rely on quality hay for your horses or livestock, only the strongest, most weather-resistant cover will do—and this one delivers.
But Can’t I Just Use A Tarp and Get The Same Result?
If you could, we would have never gone to the years of trouble and testing and design and patenting to make this one-of-a-kind fitted Hay Bale Cover! You see— unlike standard tarps that can be cumbersome and unreliable, often blowing away in the wind and rain, our hay bale cover features a patented welded seam construction made from 18-ounce polyethylene. This design ensures durability and
a snug fit, preventing water ingress and reducing the risk of mold development. Additionally, the cover can be secured in approximately 2.5 minutes and weighs only 10 pounds, making it user-friendly and efficient.
Can I Use The Cover With Various Hay Bale Feeders?
Yes, the Country Acres Hay Bale Cover is versatile and compatible with various feeders, including cattle, horse, and net feeders. We also have a patent pending for a cradle feeder cover, expanding its applicability.
How Durable Is The Country Acres Hay Bale Cover?
Very Durable! Constructed from high-quality 18-ounce polyethylene with welded seams, the cover is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions. With proper care, it is estimated to last between 5 to 8 years, offering long-term protection for your hay.
Is It Easy To Install Even For 1 Person?

The Solution Section (FAQ)
What is the Bale Cover by Country Acres, LLC.?
It is a patented, form-fitting round hay bale cover made by Country Acres, LLC. It slips over an individual round bale or a feeder holding a round bale and secures with a ratchet strap at the bottom, creating a weather-resistant barrier that protects hay from moisture, mold, and the elements.
