You just have to love this place. The employee's are all like friends. Very helpful with anything you need for your house or farm. They are the original start of the feed an seed stores. Been in business since 1934. They have several local stores in this area. Each one carries the same staples along with some different types of items for that area. They carry lots of handmade and local products and gifts. They gladly will sell you one bale of hay, one bag of feed. Or a ton and always will help load it for you. I always get my rubber boots there. They have a great selection of water proof boots. And the good ole barn muck boots. Also a large amount of winter coats. Along with western shirts and work pants. This store has a huge several aisle selection of nuts an bolts. Plus the hard to find repair parts for cabinets, shelves, electronics, screen doors and on an on. All those little parts that break on household goods. So you can repair it. And not have throw it away and buy a new one. The store was remodeled a year ago. So they have a expanded selection of most everything with the extra new open spaces. Outside they have a large fantastic garden center. My mom before she past. She would spend hours, weekly in the garden center. They always have so much to see. Their propane gas prices are usually the best in town. They fill your bottles. Not like at the box store. Were you have to exchange tanks. And pay 50% more per gallon. I just purchased a quantity of railroad ties for a retaining wall. Top quality, they almost looked new. They should last over a 100 years. If you haven't been in or if it's been a while, stop by. One last thing. When you walk in you'll notice a fresh popcorn smell in the air. Follow it back the help desk in the center of the store. Then help yourself to a...
Read moreExcellent customer service experience on a busy Saturday afternoon! Really cool genuine feed and seed store. Has the feel of a much more rural store. The staff went out of their way to get my order ready when I told them what I wanted. I even changed my mind last minute, and they accommodated that no problem. They even apologized for taking so long and thanked me for my patience. We were walked up to the check out by the person who helped us and thanked for coming in. By the time we were walking out of the store, after having paid for chicken feed and fencing, we were instantly greeted by a guy with our order on a forklift. When I said we could turn around and back up so he could load easier, he told us not to bother and he'd drive around. When he got to the back of our SUV, he very carefully loaded the heavy 100 foot rolls of wire in the back taking care that they were loaded so the tailgate would not hit when it was closed. Another very cool feature of this store that means a lot to me and my wife is that an amazing amount of items are made in the USA! I bought two plastic yet durable dustpans, made in the USA. There were even a pair of leather work boots I looked at that were made in the USA. Yeah maybe the US stuff is a little bit more expensive, but I'll gladly pay it, knowing it puts money in...
Read moreI purchased two miniature Osier dogwood’s for my front porch about a month ago. One is coming on beautifully, the other, dead as a door nail. I stopped by, with the plant tag and pictures of both plants, to ask whether or not the store guaranteed their shrubs and instead of an answer, was treated to a lecture by an 18 year old girl on plant stress. I’ve been gardening for 40+ years now and the last thing I needed was a lecture from a child running the nursery department. The answer essentially was no, we don’t guarantee shrub purchases the way most nurseries do. It’s a crying shame and a poor business decision on the child’s part as I was prepared to purchase several trees and shrubs today as the first step toward a complete landscape renovation project, not to mention the hundreds of dollars I’ve spent on flowers and shrubs there in the past. So, the co-op did save themselves 25 bucks, but they’ll never see another dime...
