Tractor Supply Company always has the things I need that I can’t seem to find anywhere else. I’m not a farmer, but I do have quite a few pets, a prolific garden, and hobbies that include canning and ice cream making. TSC excels in the«seasonal» items department. When it’s canning season, they have tons of mason jars in all sizes with all the accessories. When it’s flea and tick season, they offer cheap deals on flea and tick repellents for pets. I specifically appreciate that TSC carries a lot of «homesteading» material, whether it be how-to magazines, cookbooks, farming/gardening books, fencing and other garden/farm needs, kitchen supplies, or pet/animal care items. If my dog gets a minor injury, or my cat’s not feeling well, the first place I go is TSC for some basic care items. You may need to know ahead of time what you need to buy, as the last time I tried to buy a broad-spectrum antibiotic powder, the staff I asked had no idea what I was talking about. Thankfully, I knew exactly what it was and what it looked like and was able to find it on my own after awhile. The set up of this location doesn’t really make sense to me, and while it’s similar to other TSC store layouts, it seems more cramped and I always have a difficult time finding stuff. Also, like other reviewers mention, the line to check out always takes awhile. Usually there’s only 1 cashier and each register has a very small counter(not much room for the next person to set their stuff down). Go, but know what you’re looking for. You might even find a few impulse buys along the way!

I hate the layout but like the stuff. Usually you can get better stuff at better prices than Home Depot and Lowes for specialty items like fences, fence gates, dog stuff, planting stuff, chippers, chainsaw parts, mower blades, electric fence supplies. BASICALLY, if you can’t find it at home depot and has to do with gardening, live stock or fencing then it is probably here. The hardware selection is a little lame, the tools are decent but nothing you couldn’t get in HD/Lowe’s. The layout is really congested and the two registers at the front always feel like a wait, other than that the things that they sell are of high quality.

As a horse owner, I come to TSC for horse related supplies such as buckets, deworming medicine, and other assorted horse items. It is nice to see TSC carrying BOTH English AND Western tack for horses– not something you see at all. One down fall, is that after a while they completely ran out of deworming medicine each time I went there. I now order my horse medicine online through a different company but still like the fact that there’s a store in the middle of Enfield which carries some horse items! So. YAY!
