prefer locally-owned Farm & Fleet, a HUGE farm supply store.

What a hoot. Fleet farm is awesome. It is worth driving up to the upper Midwest just to see one. It is huge, rural, and so down home. It is a real store and has amazing things there. The one in Maple Grove MN has a saddle selection and a big statue of a horse, as well as other statues around the store. I have spent many happy hours there.

I do love it! Ours has a wonderful selection of basic clothing (jeans, t-shirts, etc.) and the shoe/work boot department is terrific.

I can buy jeans, a watering system for my chicken coop, kitchen towels, a new wooden spoon, a new pocket knife, pet food and birdseed and bags of cheap walnuts for baking...all in the same place.

Oh, and rat poison, LOL! :)
