Linnton Feed & Seed Store

LOVE this store! It’s a tiny little gem tucked away along Hwy 30 on the south end of Linnton.
I’m happy to support local family owned businesses whenever possible. I’ve been purchasing bales of straw here for approx 5 yrs and the customer service has been EXCELLENT each and every time.
The family dog greets customers as they come into the store. And in the spring they have baby chicks chirping away at the entrance (adorable!)
Seems like every time I come here it’s a different employee who helps me load up my bales of straw and every employee has been super nice and friendly.
I wish they had a bigger selection of gardening stuff, because I would shop here more often.

What a nice little country feed store! I love to come in and get our dog cookies here, the bulk price can’t be beat. The kids know this place as the baby chicken store because, well they always seem to have baby chicks lol. Kids love this. It’s fun to see the chickens down in the yard too and pet goats when they’re there. Picking up seasonal veggie starts, flowers and herbs is nice and they always seem to be good quality. Always genuinely nice people working ready and willing to help you out if you need it.

This place is amazing. The staff has to be some of the most knowledgable people in the PDX area when it comes to raising chickens, livestock, gardening ect. My wife and I stopped in there a couple months ago wanting to get some information on getting some chickens started at our new home. I cannot recall the young womans name but she literally answered every single question we could think of.
I have called them maybe 3 separate times with questions ranging from chicken feed to goat breeding and every time they are there with the answers and a friendly attitude. I have never once gotten the impression that they were annoyed or had better things to do than educate me.
Prices are decent and selection is decent as well for a non-​chain feed store.

On my way to sauvie island I stopped by the feed store to buy some feed for my quails. The staff are laid back and was very helpful. They pointed me to the direction of the poultry food in bulk. It was sixty cents a pound. It seemed cheap to me! I bought three dollars worth. We also got a bale of hay for about nine dollars I think. I will definitely visit here again.
They have ducklings right now and man, they are adorable! I was tempted to buy one!

Five-​star, all the way. Darcy + co are incredible with customer support, have incredible product lines and killer prices, are super helpful, and also have awesome taste in music.
I buy dogfood here, farm supplies, gardening gear /​amendments /​tools, you name it.
Love this place. First rate.

Why would I go to an Ace Hardware when I can support a locally owned feed store that’s been open forever? Answer: I wouldn’t.
I started out as a patron as this place when I was a little girl (i’m talking like, five years old) with my dad, when he would give me quarters so I could get Reses Pieces out of the vintage candy dispenser. Now i’m a full-​blown adult and i’m there buying flat head screw drivers, seeds, ant killer, and other necessary adult things.
Love Linnton. Love local. Love Highway 30!

Stopped in after numerous visits down highway 30 to feed stores closer to my home looking for basic farming supplies with no luck. Linnton Feed & Seed is our new one stop shop! They carried all the rubber feed pans in various sizes, galvanized food bins & buckets, chicken supplies & fencing we were looking for! I loved the huge selection of feed, including organic feed as well! The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable & the shop kitty was adorable!

Great store. Very very knowledgeable staff. They have been instrumental in the success of my first flock of chickens. They are always ready to help you with first hand experience information or a help out to the car with a heavy bag of feed. Beyond being a local and knowledgeable small business. you don’t pay any more for it. Their prices routinely beat large box and huge farm stores prices. Not kidding. I work by Coastal and have discovered that LF&S not only has a comparable selection (if not better) of crucial items. but everything is a considerable lower price Check it out. they have cheaper prices on items than even Lowe’s or Home Depot. So ya. I got a lot of good things to say about the place. I live in a St. Johns ans drive by another city farming store to get there if that tells you anything. It’s worth the trip.

Very cool store.
Nice people who are laid back and knowledgeable.
Quality organic products.
Grain-​free cat and dog food.
If you own rabbits you can get bales of hay and pellets here.
Plus they have some cool gloves, scarves and hats made from alpaca.

As they say, «location location location!» and the success of this mini-​me granary is yet another testament to that little bit of breath-​taking profundity. To wit: for countrified folk in the greater surrounding area, Linnton feed and seed is IT, the only game in town, whether it’s feed and supplies for livestock, horses, dogs, home and gardening,. The locale of this little gem of a shop make its worth its weight in gold-​embossed alfalfa, and don’t think the owners don’t know it!!!
Was it Woody Allen that once quipped that 80% of success is simply showing up? Deeply ensconced w/​in that bit of snarkiness, there is some bonafide truth. Could it be that success by our conventional, western standard, is the exception, rather than the rule — particularly for folks in business for themselves — - simply b/​c so very few of us are willing/​able to simply show up for the drudgery? I can’t believe that it would be anything like a controversial statement, to here mention that a disturbing percentage, and ever growing number of folks in our me-​me-​me societ-​me believe themselves too good to work? In the very least, most of «us» assuredly don’t WANT to work, and the fabric of our ever-​waning social resources is an unmistakable sign of this very thing, as more and more people join the swollen ranks of those permanently on the dole, and are very clearly teaching loved ones how they, too, can also participate
This brings us, in a leisurely (not to say laconic) fashion back to our friends at the feed and seed. There are no convoluted formulations going on here, no killer, family recipes or incantations. There’s Nothing too far-​fetched, high-​faltuin, or illegal or immoral (one presumes) involved in the «secret to their success».
They offer needed goods at a highly convenient locale, and they are willing to show up day after day, be they ever so bored and un-​challenged by the process. One might readily take note, I have nowhere said that bargain basement prices are any where in this formula, and indeed they are nowhere to be found @ Linnton feed and seed. You will pay significantly more for bales of hay, bags of grain, basic tack, etc etc, than at larger superstores, like out at Coastal, over in Oregon City. You pay for the time and the convenience, and most return customers rightly judge this is a worthwhile tradeoff. The thought of battling through traffic coming AND going (kill me now!) to Gateway or OC or any other such dealers for larger selections and significantly lower prices sometimes simply isnt’ feasible logicistically. People’s time is valuable, it turns out! This ishow/​why 7 – 11 can get away with their completely un-​competitive prices on laundry detergent and coffee filters, etc.
Thanks for being such an outstanding and yet mundane example of the American success story, Linnton F & S. You never stay open late or offer eye-​popping sales, but you show up. You get ‘er done,
and above all, you keep on gettin’ paid. So keep on keepin’ on.

I stopped here on a lark once when heading out to Sauvie Island and I wish this store was closer! They have great prices for feed, an amazing selection and I even loved all the bird feeders they were offering for sale. This place is great!!!

Like stepping into your local general or hardware store 30 years ago. All your essential tools or supplies in a pinch and the people are always really nice.

Thank God for Linnton Feed and Seed. Best feed store around. Has everything I need and then some. Prices are more than fair. Baby chickens, turkeys, rabbits and ducks! Great gardening stuff, boots, feed, equipment, hardware, plants…

This store has it all! I love the small town feel and the wonderful customer service. They also have the cheapest plants around and the cutest baby chicks and ducks!

Turkeys and a whole lot more. By more I’m talking about Pendleton Prison Blues (clothing made by prisoners). This place is totally cool and worth going to. Best of all it probably has all the gardening and feed needs one is after. A farmer will feel at home.

Like so many feed and seed stores… Linnton Feed & Seed definitely has its own personality (ie: funky cool tapestry hung in the windows). It sells vegetable plants for the garden, turkey chicks? Hay, and even «Prison Blues» which are extra tough, well made jeans and jean jackets made by Oregon inmates in Pendleton, OR. Hardware for farm repairs, equipment to feed baby animals, shovels and rakes, rubber boots and with kid toys on hand to keep tots happy. It has been years since I have had to go to a feed store… but, I still like em, so I stop in when I see one.
Website might be new?!

I’ve shopped at the Feed and Seed for over twenty years and it is by far on one of the best places to shop in Portland for pet/​animal feed, garden supplies, and hardware for everyday fixes. Huge plus is the excellent people who work there.
10 minutes from downtown and NW PDX. Hop, skip and jump from St. Johns. All you Urban Farmers out there HAVE to check this place out!

On the way out to Sauvie Island, we passed this place which looks as tho’ it’s been there forever. It’s on the only road heading out to Sauvie Island, right past the St. John’s Bridge on your right. It’s beige, nondescript, and has some chickens out front along with lots of bags of feed & some plants.
Once inside, you’ll swear it’s the late 1960’s again — there’s that incense/​essential oil/​patchouli thing going on, which may cover the scent of livestock. I like the smell of livestock, but who am I?
Anyway, great prices on chicken feed & straw which is what I need a lot of these days. Those d#*n chickens & ducks of ours are eating like crazy but as yet have not produced a single egg! At least they are comfortable in their new straw, chowing down on some premium feed. I like the authenticity of this place, and I like how the man behind the counter hauled the items out to my car. It never even seemed to occur to him not to. I like that! It’s not all ‘urban farm chi-​chi’. This is the real deal. If you have chickens, you need to go check this place out!

Ahh, Linnton. Not that much farther out than St. Johns (which feels like its own suburb) yet it is, literally, a whole different world than urbane Portland. The Feed ‘n’ Seed has everything the urban farmer could need-​hardware supplies, tools, pet food, baby chicks, alfalfa hay, and cover crop seed in bulk. They even have «farm fresh eggs» $ 3/​dozen. The staff are jocular and dry. At the very least, it’s a welcome respite from Lowe’s and Home Despot for the North or Northwest portland gardener.
