Management doesn't care about local farmers: I have done business with Willow Wind Feed & Tack since 1994. HOWEVER, THAT'S ALL CHANGED SINCE THE NEW OWNER [TOP SHELF]TOOK OVER IN 2009.
<br/><br/>Under the present circumstances, Willow Wind Feed & Tack should stop misleading the local farming community by representing itself as a source for agricultural products & consider renaming itself to something like Willow Wind Pet Supply & Garden Center.
<br/><br/>Over the years, Willow Wind Feed & Tack seemed to appreciate the business received by local farmers, such as myself. The customer service was excellent, there was a wide variety of agricultural products offered at economical prices & a genuine interest in meeting the specific needs of local farmers. In return, we stayed loyal to the company & passed on the savings to local customers when we sold our farm products to the community.
<br/><br/>BUT THAT'S ALL CHANGED NOW & WILLOW WIND FEED & TACK EXPECTS TO STILL GET AGRICULTURE DOLLARS FROM LOCAL FARMERS EVEN THOUGH PRICES HAVE SKY ROCKETED & PRODUCT VARIETY HAS DWINDLED. IT SEEMS THAT FARMERS EITHER HAVE TO "SHUT UP N' PUT UP" OR GO ELSEWHERE BECAUSE MANAGEMENT HASN'T LISTENED TO OUR CONCERNS BY BRINGING ABOUT EFFECTIVE CHANGES TO HELP LOCAL FARMERS!
<br/><br/>The store is more like a high priced, high-end pet supply/garden center now rather than the farm friendly feed store it used to be.
<br/><br/>HOW CAN I JUSTIFY BUYING MY LIVESTOCK FEED FROM A PLACE THAT HAS LIMITED VARIETY & CHARGES $2 to $3 OR MORE PER BAG, WHEN I CAN PAY CONSIDERABLY LESS FOR THE SAME PRODUCTS ELSEWHERE? The higher cost really adds up when you're ordering 10 bags of livestock feed or more & hikes up farm costs for local farmers, which escalates the price of our products for consumers or drives small farmers out of business!
<br/><br/>MONEY TALKS N' BULLSH#T WALKS ... SO I'VE BEEN TAKING MOST OF MY BUSINESS ELSEWHERE FOR THE LAST FEW MONTHS & SPREADING THE WORD ABOUT BETTER DEALS TO OTHER LOCAL FARMERS IN THE PROCESS.
