Tony Happel opened Baker Feed & Country Store in 2016 because people living the rural life out here deserved a knowledgeable feed store closer to home. Baker lost Tony in 2025. Today his wife, Heather, carries the family business forward, and Jennifer Augustine, who has run the store with him since the early days, still keeps the whole operation going. Tack, feed, apparel, everything you need to keep up a pasture, and a conversation or two: stop in for straight answers and fair prices.
