Local Business Owner Presents Farm Feed Delivery Service
Michelle Zimmer, owner of Bloomington Farm & Feed, presented her business to city officials during a recent meeting, highlighting her company's mission to serve backyard farmers in the metro area.
The business provides next-day delivery of high-quality Minnesota-grown feed and supplies directly to customers' homes. Zimmer said the company has been operating for approximately one year and has experienced steady growth during that time.
Zimmer explained that she started the business after struggling to find quality feed for her own backyard flock of five years. She said she and her family had to travel outside the metro area to obtain proper supplies for their animals, which led her to recognize a broader need in the community.
The company currently focuses on delivery services but plans to expand with a physical storefront. According to Zimmer, the proposed location would feature merchandise, vendor products including chicken-themed items, and expanded inventory covering feed for various backyard animals including rabbits, guinea pigs, cats and dogs.
Zimmer announced plans to host a pitch presentation on August 6th, where she will outline the company's goals and expansion plans. She invited community members and officials to attend the event.

[0:00] Hi guys, my name is Michelle Zimmer and
[0:02] I'm the owner of Bloomington Farm and
[0:03] Feed. Our mission is to create
[0:06] simplicity and convenience for backyard
[0:08] farmers in and around the metro. And we
[0:11] have next day delivery for high quality
[0:14] Minnesota grown feed and supplies
[0:16] delivered to your front door, rain or
[0:18] shine. You know, we've had our own
[0:20] backyard flock for about 5 years. And we
[0:22] learned that we had to go outside of the
[0:24] metro in order to get good feed and
[0:26] supplies for our animals because you are
[0:29] what you eat. And once we realized that
[0:32] there's a lot more people who needed
[0:34] that as well, we created this business
[0:35] to kind of give back to people and make
[0:37] sure that they are also able to get the
[0:39] highquality feed and supplies that they
[0:42] required. With that, we've been growing
[0:44] for about a year now. And it's been
[0:46] going great. And now our next goal is to
[0:48] open a storefront where people can come
[0:50] and check out the merch and we can add
[0:52] vendors and let's say chicken aprons and
[0:56] crazy chicken lady things and all kinds
[0:58] of feed and supplies. On top of that,
[1:01] we've also added backyard animals like
[1:03] bunny food or guinea pigs, cats and dogs
[1:06] and all of that kind of stuff. And we we
[1:08] try to source it all around Minnesota
[1:11] grown feed because we actually have a
[1:13] lot of really awesome supplies in our
[1:15] own backyard. So, I'm going to be
[1:17] throwing a pitch out on August 6th, and
[1:19] I hope you guys can join us. We're going
[1:21] to be giving a pitch on our goals and
[1:24] our dreams and everything that we've got
[1:25] in between. So, we hope to see you
[1:27] there. Thank you.
