Temple Feed & Supply
DAVID STONE | TEMPLE DAILY TELEGRAM
A longtime fixture in Downtown Temple will soon move to bigger digs on Loop 363.
Temple Feed & Supply, owned by Lindsey Strait and her brother, Adam Lucksinger, started in 1983 when they purchased an existing feed business at the location on Main Street on the north side of the railroad tracks.
“We opened the Temple business, and in 1998 we expanded to Belton,” Lindsey said. “But we will be moving the Temple business to the intersection of the loops where Farm Equipment Services was located for years.”
“The new location will be convenient for the area’s farmers and ranchers,” she said. “That area is the hub of Temple’s agricultural community — it’s right where people from Rogers, Cameron,
Academy and Holland come into town.”
The new location will be on 13 acres, and the existing building will become a warehouse.
“Construction has already started on a new retail center, a garden center and a big building for storing and selling hay,” she said. “The garden center will sell flowers, vegetable plants and trees.”
“We will have some gift items, t-shirts and shoes, but our focus will be on farm supplies, garden necessities and pet products.”
“We’re hoping to open in early fall,” Lindsey said. “We’re super excited. Construction is under way, and they are making great progress.”
The current location was purchased by the city of Temple more than a year ago.
