Feeders Grain, Corning Iowa
We are going full speed on the farm, calves are coming, cows getting moved, and fertilizer is applied. Now its time to start building fence. This means a trip to Feeders Grain in Corning, Iowa for supplies. Feeders Grain is owned by Jim Curtis. Jim and his crew are the perfect example of a supplier that fits the Deming model. I can always count on Jim to have what I need when I need it, top quality products, competitive price, and a willingness to accommodate the needs of agriculture (being available nights and weekends if needed). In a day and age of high volume chain stores Jim's living proof that the "little guy" can compete.
Here's Jim, besides being my supplier for Fairfield Line work gloves, "the best gloves on the planet". He has supplied me with Red Brand fencing materials, Sioux Steel gates and Bins, LaCross overshoes, Purina Mineral, and countless other quality products. His business, his role modeling, and his advice, have been a big part of my farms success.
Starting to stock up on fence supplies, good products, good inventory, fair price, and good help is what has been bringing me to Feeders for nearly 20 years.
This is where all the fencing supplies wind up. We build a lot of fence each year. You'll be hearing more about fence in later blogs.
