[QUOTE="rmcva, post: 342059, member: 5473"] Yes. [url]http://www.royaloakfarmllc.com/[/url] It's located near the Bedford Country line near Johnson Mountain. Send him an e-mail and he may send you some pictures. I bought feed there all last summer. He has a nice setup. One long bin for 16% gluten/soyhull pellets.
