“I had a great experience at Tractor Supply Company during my visit. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to help when I had questions. The store was well organized, the shelves were stocked, and there was a good variety of products available. Overall, it was an easy and pleasant shopping experience, and I would definitely stop here again when I’m in the area.”
“We have purchased lamb from the Hewitts for years and vegetables from the Big Red Barn before that. So when it came time to add a starter sheep flock to our small homestead, we could think of no one better to buy from.
I initially wondered if it was worth hiring them for ag consulting additionally since we are so small. I tend to think of this service as something for large commercial operations.
Boy, are we glad we got the consulting part too. We've never had sheep before and this was absolutely worth it's weight in gold (or Amex.) Brian and Michelle came out to our property and identified the types of grass, appropriateness of our fencing and shelter, and recommended an amount of animals based on the lot size. They immediately followed up by email with a written list of specific supplies they recommend. Our ram and ewes were selected based on this meeting and delivered to us. We really felt like all our questions were answered and when our first sheepergency came up, they immediately responded to our anxious questions.
So many people I know are trying to add some element of farming to their already busy day job lives, but don't know where to start. I highly recommend Brian and Michelle for even small properties: let them save you the expense and headache reinventing the wheel from their years of learned experience!”
“Lucille was so helpful over the phone. I ordered bare root plants and they all came in wonderfully healthy and larger than expected. Will be a returning customer!”
“Old Mill is GREAT for people doing some more “advanced” gardening or farming. Huge selection of 50 lb bags of things like bat guano, kelp meal, azomite, etc, all for super reasonable prices.”
“This is a master gardeners paradise. There is so much variety and the plants are well cared for. No weeds, No pest, just healthy plants. If you’re lucky enough to meet Fred he will entertain you with his fountain of knowledge and possibly give you a tour of his Manzanitas. The minute you step out of the car you can tell this is a special place that’s well cared for.”
