7-30-25 ATTENTION: Due to the storms this week, Hudson South Dakota is impassible please use an alternative route to get here, possibly the best route is through Canton. It will be that way for the next several days according to the Lincoln County Sheriff department. Also, for the next couple of months, Main Street going NORTH on the Rock Valley blacktop will be closed. We're located at 3110 Eagle Ave in Rock Valley. It is located across the road east of Town & Country Implement. ATTENTION: WE ARE CURRENTLY HAVING THURSDAY AUCTIONS. WE HAVE HAY FOR SALE PRIVATE TREATY ON OUR WEBSITE. PLEASE CHECK OUT THE "HAY FOR SALE" TAB AT THE TOP OF THIS PAGE. Rock Valley Hay Auction has been selling hay and straw for over 70 years. We sell on average 4500 loads annually.
