We are open for business to make sure your animals are fed, to market your grain and to make sure your crops are taken care of but in order to do our jobs, we have to be healthy.

Please call your feed orders into the office and when you come to pick up your feed orders stay in your vehicle and we will load your feed into your vehicle.  In addition, we will continue to deliver your bulk feed orders.

If you are dropping off a payment please leave it in the mailbox.
