History: Show Me Family Feed and More began about 10 years ago to provide needed products and services to community members.
“We have a lot of great interaction with the community,” manager David “Lewy” Lasiter said. “The whole idea was to be a part of the community and provide for those who are in need around us. We’ve had a couple of down years, but it has been nothing but growth other than those years.”
Products and Services: Lewy said Show Me Family Feeds and More offers just that – feed and much more.
The family-owned and operated business officers feed for cattle, sheep, goats, poultry and swine.
“The majority of what we offer is the Crescent brands,” Lewy explained, adding that they offer feeds for young animals, all the way to feeds for mature herds and flocks.
In addition to livestock feeds, wild animal items, such as wild bird seed or deer blocks are in stock at Show Me Family Feeds and More.
“Our main focus is great-quality, great-priced dog food, and cheap propane,” Lewy said. “That’s where we make our best money, but we are also a walnut hulling station and have your standard farm feeds as well.”
The Show Me Family Feeds and More inventory can also find bagged fertilizers, animal health supplies, minerals and supplements.
Additionally, Show Me Family Feed and More offers seasonal produce, bedding plants, flowers and specialty items like regionally-sourced jams and jellies.
Show Me Family Feed recently received pumpkins, gourds and other fall decorating items.
The Lasiter family also offers customers some hay from their family farm.
“We have a set amount each year, and we don’t want to bring hay in from outside sources,” Lewy said.
Future plans: Lewy said Show Me Family Feed and More hopes to continue growing and offer more products their customers want and need.
In the future, there is a possibility of offering Lasiter-family raised, grass-finished beef at the store.
“We want to continue to be a service to our community,” Lewy said.
