    What is a good price to charge for doing hay rides once a week at some ones tree farm. I just had a lady ask me to do this for her this year, pretty much giving people rides to go get a Christmas tree. Just wanted to ask and see what you all thought or what you are charging. Taylor Johnson

    I charge $100 for a four hour day and $200 for an eight hour day. Won’t make a killing at those prices but it keeps it pretty affordable for someone who wants it done. Or, you can charge by the head. Somewhere around $5 for adults and $2 or free for kids.

    Hope it helps.

    For me, it depends a lot on how far away I am driving, whether it will be a regular gig or not, and whether I will need the wagon elsewhere between time. Not having a van, I have to make separate trips to deliver the wagon and the horses. If I will being going back time and again, I can leave the wagon there and just travel with the horses. But if I have to bring the wagon home again each time, those trips can really add up.

    You better hope the farm has insurance otherwise do donations only.

    Perhaps a signed waiver, instead? Or in addition to? Probably need an attorney to give it the once-over, to make sure it’s comprehensive, yet simple.
