Hi all -
Well in tough times, creative ideas are the ones that we need to pull through... and I have one that needs your help.
I live in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where there are still ranching families, but the valley has become so wealthy around us that rents have skyrocketed and many businesses that ordinarily would be here, simply can't survive. So, despite the countless people with horses, and backyard chicken flocks, and goats and the like... we don't have a farm feed store. I have to drive to Driggs, Idaho for the average stuff, and to Idaho Falls or Thayne WY for anything of substantial quality - 2 hours and 2 mountain passes away.
SO, I would like to get into the feed business - small at first, focusing on the contingency of folks here who have backyard flocks - with delivery and a lot of service and advice.
I need a broader view of poultry feed, and the collective idea of the very best organic and non organic feed out there ... best supplements... best things to sell for the well being of small flocks (in a very cold climate) Any thoughts about what you love or would love to have both in quality feed brands or service?
I can run it out of a storage unit or my garage for the time being - but would love to grow into something special that would be a great community thing.
Ideas? Thoughts? Insights? Wisdoms? Admonishments?
Highest gold standard feed? Best nutrition products?
What do you think??
