Love is in the air at Russell Feed and Supply! Forgo the traditional Valentine's flowers and chocolates this year and consider donating a bag of pet food to a family in need. We are an official drop off location for the 2014 Valentine Pet Food Drive benefiting the "Don't Forget to Feed Me" pet food pantry. It's a great cause and a great organization!
Fresh onion sets, seed potatoes and cole crops have arrived. Be sure to check out Mike's Monthly Garden Newsletter, as it's packed with great advice to get your lawn and garden ready for the spring.
The Tarrant County Junior Live Stock show kicks off later this month. If you know someone participating, snap a picture and send it to us. We'd love to share their accomplishments on Facebook.
Happy Valentines Day!
