Please Note- We understand our price increase is significant - however in the last 2 years we have had several long closures out of our control, a very large increase in feed costs and supplies, wages increase and a loss of our main income which is our school educational programs. We hope that we will be able to reduce our prices again once things start to settle.
If you have any questions please contact us we are more than happy to answer them.
