A Family Business
Shipston Feeds is a family run business which has been set up by Jo and Megan to fill the gap which was left after the closure of Wynstay in 2006.
Jo with her faithful friends
Jo has over 10 years experience working in equine nutrition, and is always on hand to offer advice and guidance to customers. Seen here with her gun dogs, Honey, Marmite and Rolo (who will soon be available for stud duties) and Jack, of course! Jo likes to get out with them picking up throughout the season, and can often be found at Point-to-Point meetings as well.
Jack prepares himself for the next delivery run
Here is Jack in his favourite seat next to Jo in the van. He never misses the opportunity to travel alongside her whenever she goes out on a delivery run. Of course, Jo is also always on hand at the Dressage Shows, acting as groom for Megan. Megan has spent the last 25 years working with horses, and has been managing Rimell Saddlers in Shipston for 21 years, and is able to complement her sister, Jo, with a wide range of helpful knowledge and advice drawn from her experience. We supply all the popular feeds, balancers, etc as well as our own range of products. We currently operate on a delivery only basis, locally free, prices for delivery further afield can be negotiated according to distance and quantities ordered.
