Feed Barn: from the backyard to the barnyard - staple in the pet community for four decades

Feed Barn in Costa Mesa has been a staple in the pet community for four decades. Originally supplying local horsemen and small-farm animal enthusiasts, Feed Barn has changed with the times, addressing the needs of local pet owners and catering to an array of household pets. Although Feed Barn continues to provide for its share of the equestrian community, the store’s customers these days are primarily dog and cat owners.

With the pet business booming and big-box stores popping up in many places, some would say it’s a wonder how this family-owned mom-and-pop feed store could stay afloat. Among the things that Feed Barn prides itself on is the fact that its friendly, knowledgeable staff did not just sign on to sell pet supplies yesterday. The staff members know their stuff and are more than willing to talk to customers and address any concerns. Whether it be trapping and releasing a pesky skunk or recommending a conditioner to help detangle a Chow, the staff members have an educated answer for nearly any question that comes their way.

In addition to a knowledgeable pet-care staff, Feed Barn features a well-stocked barn of competitively priced specialty pet foods and supplies, such as Innova, Wellness, Canidae, Solid Gold, California Natural, Oxbow, Newman’s Own Organics, Greenies and many more.

Walking into Feed Barn brings you back to a simpler time: a time when merchants had a relationship with their customers in the neighborhood. Taking care of customers is Feed Barn’s No. 1 priority.

So bring your pet by — they are more than welcome — as you enjoy a day shopping at Feed Barn. And if you happen to see the shop’s 6-foot-tall fiberglass horse, Trigger, which was stolen back in March (yep, he is still missing), he can come, too.

Feed Barn is located at 2300 Newport Blvd. in Costa Mesa. For more information, call 949-548-3151.
