Clark's Feed Mill, Inc.

Clark’s Feed Mill has an extensive family history, which dates to 1929. Joseph Clark, the founder, built a two-story warehouse and began buying and selling farm products to the community. Later on, a mill in Turbotville, PA was bought and used to compliment the warehouse facility with local grain that is located in Shamokin, PA. William and Ned joined their father, Joseph, as partners after completing their education at Penn State Univ. in the 1950s. Soon after their partnership was formed, the business expanded into the Kosher Poultry market. Local farmers from around the area were contracted to raise chickens, which were sold to markets in New York City. Railroad sites at both locations were used to supply the mills with grain and protein needed to manufacture the feed. During the 1970s, William and Ned expanded the business and decided to open two retail stores in Shamokin and Turbotville. The Turbotville facility concentrated on dairy, hogs, and the selling and buying of grain for the animals. The Shamokin store focused their energy on poultry growing and feed manufacturing. Eventually, the success of the poultry business took William even further and he expanded the Shamokin facility by opening a retail store. William retired in 1994, bringing the 3rd generation into the family business. Kenneth Clark, Robert Clark, and Sue Clark-Mansell. Clark's Ag Center was split from Clark’s Feed Mill in 2006 with Ken taking ownership. Robert and Sue took ownership of Clark’s Feed Mill. Sue passed away in 2015 with Robert taking full ownership. The 4th generation came into the Clark’s Feed Mill business in 2019. Robert’s son William started full time in the Feed Mill and Robert's daughter, Tessa Applegate started in July as Chief Financial Officer after finishing her Master’s in Business from Bloomsburg University. Not a small feat to accomplish, Clark’s Feed Mill is meeting challenges and beating the odds as they eagerly move into the future as a 4th generation family.
