You want service, boy, they got service.
I walk in, they guy holding the door for me what I need, and I tell him about how I just moved to OP and have some new feeders and want some better food than what they have at Menards. He says, they can't get cheaper than Menards, but they were pretty comparable as far as I could tell. And here they even carried the bag out to my car.
The guy was a wealth of knowledge, and helped me pick out a good thistle feeder that the squirrels won't destroy, hopefully. Only thing was I wish I could have browsed, but I didn't say I was 'just browsing.'
Definitely will be back.
100% UNIQUIE
I happened across the feed store after moving into the neighborhood just NE of it (Forest View). Driving down Harlem, The Feed Store is located just south of I55 on the west side of the street. They have their own farm-y looking parking lot.
Upon entering the feed store I suspect you'll be cheerfully greeted - as I have been the last three times I was there, by no less than three people all asking if I needed any help, etc.
The feed Store has an amazing amount of animal food & feed! If you have the pet, they have the food (& the pets...more on that later):
Horse food
Monkey Food
Duck Food
Pigeon Food
Bird Food
Outdoor Species Specific Bird Seed
Dog Food
Cat Food
....way too much to list!
So far I have bought Bird Food, Wild Bird Seed, and even grass seed to repair my lawn. I think the prices are competitive and I enjoy the information they provide regarding birds and seed. I even had a strapping young man carry my bag to my car for me...nice.
Animals!!!!
If you would like to raise some yard egg laying chickens you can find them here very affordably! They seemed to have a couple of different breeds as well as ducks, homeing pigeons, carrier pigeons, dove pairs, parakeets, finches, and bunnies! They will encourage you to ask your municipality if you might have 2-3 chickens in your backyard for eggs. (You do not need the rooster for this & Chickens are quiet w/o the rooster).
If you have a free afternoon stop by the feed store and checkout what they have - you forget how close you are to the city...until one of the young men says: "oh no, the chickens are out on Harlem Avenue again!"
