B & B Farm Store

Description

B & B Farm Store was previously named K & B Farm Store, located in downtown Jesup, IA. Here, a young Jerry Bloes began as an employee working in the feed mill in 1959. Nine years later, Jerry puchased the store as a co-ownership with his partner Paul, and the 'B & B' was renamed to refer to the last names of these two owners. In 1980, Paul left the business and Jerry took full ownership. B & B has since been passed down to Jerry's son Donnie, but Jerry still stays very involved in the business. In 2002, a new feed mill was built in its current location just outside Jesup. Soon, the farm store itself was built, along with a Honda-certified lawnmower repair shop, both just next to the feed mill. As B & B Farm Store has evolved over the years, so have the products and services we provide. The feed mill is the backbone of our business, and the roots of how B & B Farm Store began. "It began as a feed store," says Jerry. "But in the early days, feed was purchased by farmers at the mill, and the farmers put the feed into their pickup trucks to take home. Now, we deliver this feed to the farmer." Many other changes have taken place here too. We have moved on to sell not only feed, but also lawnmowers (both new and used), grills, lawn and garden equipment, as well as many other specialty items over the years. Also, our lawnmower repair shop is always expanding its services. ...
