One of our customer favorites is back in stock! 🐸 First Saturday Lime is on the shelves, in two different sizes (5lb and 20lb bags). Here's why we recommend it:

✅ Eco-friendly & effective — Lab proven and field tested to repel unwanted bugs like ants, fleas, ticks, mites, lice, and roaches

✅ Safe for the whole family — Non-toxic for people, pets, plants, and the planet when used as directed

✅ Simple ingredients — Just two: citric acid and calcite. No harsh chemicals

✅ Multi-purpose — Use it in gardens, chicken coops, around home foundations, and on lawns for flea & tick prevention. It also can be used to prevent mosquito growth in water troughs and ponds.

✅ Trusted by hundreds — Loved by chicken keepers, gardeners, and pet owners alike (as seen on Shark Tank!)

Stop by and grab a bag before it's gone again! 🐔🌱

The best part of our day? When these faces walk through the door. 🐶 From tail wags at the entrance to treat time at the counter, our four-legged regulars always make Barnes Supply feel like home. 🐾 Bring your pup the next time you visit — the treats are on us!

New plants, new partner! 🌱 We’re thrilled to be carrying Nourishing Acres this season.

Founded in 2015 by Keith and Meg Marshall, Nourishing Acres has been putting down roots in Orange County, NC—growing high quality, nutrient-dense vegetables for the Hillsborough, Carrboro, and Durham communities. Each season they provide full-time employment for 4-5 people with fair, competitive wages.

We’ve got their broccoli, Swiss chard, kale, oregano, and lots more in stock now. Stop by and get your fall garden growing! 🍂

Sometimes we have to bring in the big guns to supervise! Caroline (Jason's daughter) did a great job helping out with a 50-bale hay delivery out to Hillsborough. Honestly, we might have to promote her now. 😉

Fun fact: this is exactly the kind of job Barnes handles all the time. Bulk delivery is one of our specialties — hay, mulch, soil, you name it, we'll get it to you in whatever quantity you need. Big job or small, we've got you covered.

Come by and let us know what you're working on! 🚜

We love a trip out to Thornfield Heritage Farm in Hillsborough! They’ve got all kinds of critters you can go and visit - ducks, chickens, pigs, sheep, rabbits, and more. We deliver feed for the animals and they’re always happy to greet us!

This year, Thornfield Farm added a spacious, covered pavilion to host a variety of events, including weddings, family reunions, school trips, and music festivals. Check out their event calendar and catch some live music on select Saturdays in September & October!

NEW at Barnes: Stainless Steel Litter Boxes! 🐾

And they're a game changer. Unlike plastic, stainless steel won't absorb odors, resists scratches (aka bacteria hideouts), and lasts 10+ years instead of 1-2.

Odor control + easy cleanup + built to last. And kitty approved!

We couldn't let our birthday month end without recognizing some of the people who've made Barnes Supply what it is today. 💚

Xine — 20 years (since 2006)
Manager, purchaser, and resident cat lover. Off the clock, Xine's into resin art, jewelry making, and perennial flower gardening — plus spoiling her cats, Baby Bear and Mikasa. "I enjoy the varied tasks that keep my sense of novelty engaged — flowers right now, kitty litter later. I also work for employers who treat me so well. I love that."

Jon — 20+ years (since 2004)
General Manager, avid fisherman, and lifelong Tar Heel fan (GTHD). Married 30+ years, John loves growing summer vegetables — heirloom tomatoes for BLTs are his favorite. "I like all the interesting people and pets you come across here. Every day seems to be different."

Brandi — 18 years (since 2008)
Bookkeeper and Office Manager — and the creative force behind our window displays, signage, and elementary school field trip tours. “I was a young single mother when I started working here many years ago. My daughter was allowed to come into work with me anytime that I lacked childcare and I’ve never once been questioned for leaving to attend to her or other heavy responsibilities. As a Durham native, working for one of oldest family-owned businesses in Durham allows me to continue to feel grounded and connected to the community as it changes and grows." Brandi is an avid gardener and enjoys designing perennial gardens for NC's pollinators. While she recently lost her two senior doggies, Brandi gets her furry-friend fix from the neighborhood dogs who visit the store. 🐾

Thank you, Xine, John, and Brandi — for your years of hard work, heart, and everything you bring to Barnes. 🌻

We love it when you send us pics of your fur babies! 🐾 June is living her best life on a paddle board in Michigan right now.

We've got everything you need to get outside with your dog: water toys, life jackets, cooling vests, and raincoats for when the weather doesn't cooperate. Grab a harness and hit the road! 🚙🐕

Tag us in your pup's summer adventures — we might just feature them next!
