Ladds Farm Supply

"Definitely not the same as it used to be! Employees are rude and useless! Called inside to let them know one of their workers shook their head and rolled their eyes because I accidentally parked somewhere they didn’t like. Dude said it was because it was a hot day and he’d take him some water. Sucks because it used to be a nice place."

"Not the same place as it was 5 or 10 years ago. Little or no knowledge about products. In other words this is not the store to go to if you are hoping for help on solving a problem. I still go once in a while but more often walk out without finding what I need. Hate to see a community fixture fade away."

"This was my first and last experience with them. My husband called two weeks ago to see when they would get Barred Rocks in. They said October 6th. He called this morning to confirm, and was told they have them in. He arrives, and they do not have Barred Rock, but they do have another kind he was willing to buy. He got to the counter to purchase them after discussing with staff about the Barred Rocks not being there, after he drove there just for them. As he’s about to purchase the other chickens, they promise to hold them for a lady over the phone. He offered to pay a higher price, explained he has been waiting for two weeks to buy chickens from them, and ultimately, it is against their policy to hold them. The woman at the counter called the owner, and they still would not honor their own policy, nor consider we had already drove the distance to purchase chickens. I didn’t know Mr. Ladd, personally, but being a resident of Cartersville most of my life, I am not sure this is how he would have ran his business. What’s the point of policies if you don’t uphold them? Why would you sell product/livestock right out from underneath the customer standing in front of you? Why would you tell them you have a certain kind, when you do not and be so inconsiderate after they drove there and was still willing to OVERPAY for what you do have? If the phone call and holding mattered, our phone call 2 weeks ago and this morning should triumph the person who called while we’re at the counter to make the purchase. Bad business from start to finish."

"The hay they sell here is junk. Full of mud and sticks. See photo. The only reason I am giving them 2 stars is the fact the carry tucker mill feed. They should be ashamed for selling this hay at $10 a bale. Black Horse is the same price and you can see it is much better quality."

"This is a great local farm supply store. Wish there were more places like this around. They keep all of the basics in stock and have a wide selection of live plants which they grow in their nursery. They also keep a lot of bulk seeds and supplies for commercial growers. Better prices than the corporate chains and excellent customer service. No complaints."
