Welcome to Riseholme Feeds Country Store! This is me, Lindsay Redfern, with my daughter Tara (aka Tiggy) who works alongside me in our Country Store in Wysall. My well established and very experienced team are detailed below - you may recognise some of them - and we all look forward to meeting you in the near future.
Riseholme Feeds History...When you look at our animal feeds & country store in Wysall, well situated on the Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire borders, with a spacious clothes and accessories shop, feed barn and plenty of parking, it's hard to imagine that it started in a rather modest shed twenty six years ago!
Who would have thought that from selling just a few bags of horse feed all those years ago, we celebrated our sixth year in Wysall at the end of November 2019 . Not only that, we have put on two successful Fashion Shows, three very well supported Fun Dog Shows and two Tractor Ted Roadshows, all in aid of some very worthwhile charities. Times have changed and we now have a large selection of Lifestyle & Equestrian Clothing collections for ladies and men, equestrian wear and toys for children , as well as a quality range of Gifts and cards. We are still passionate about riding safety, offering a large range of riding hats, skull caps and body protectors which are expertly fitted by our trained members of staff.
Of course we continue to offer our normal comprehensive range of feeds for horses, all farm animals, poultry and game, as well as feed for all kinds of pets and wild birds. We are also now delighted to be part of the Bridleway Equestrian, a select group of independent retailers who have chosen an exclusive collection of equestrian products at excellent value and great quality, giving our customers even greater choice.
We offer a full range of complementary products to support our Equestrian and Farm Feeds such as electric fencing, wormers, boots, riding hats, horse rugs and dog beds, along with rubber matting for your stables, a large choice of bedding, different sizes of wheelbarrows, stable tools and ancillary equipment.
We are also proud to support Local Producers enabling us to offer a great choice of locally produced goods including cakes, potatoes (in season), free range eggs, jams and honey. We are also pleased to offer all of our customers the opportunity to sign up to our Loyalty Card Scheme which has been a great success, so please ask a member of staff for more details so you can enjoy the benefits too!
We all look forward to meeting you and will do our very best to ensure a warm welcome, along with friendly, specialist advice across all of our product ranges, awaits .
