Washington Farmers Cooperative

Washington Farmers Cooperative specializes in providing a broad selection of agricultural feed and farm‑supply products to the Jonesborough, Tennessee community. Established in 1945 by a group of local farmers, the co‑op has grown from a modest storefront on the current site of Richard Diehl Inc. to the purpose‑built facility that opened in 1978 at 1001 Depot St, Jonesborough, TN 37659, USA. Today, the member‑owned operation continues to serve growers, ranchers, and livestock owners with feed for beef cattle, dairy cattle, equine, goat, sheep, swine, poultry, and companion animals, as well as fertilizer, fuel, and farm equipment.

The store’s inventory includes feed formulations tailored to each animal category, along with a farm‑equipment showroom and a 24‑hour fuel pump system added in 1998. In addition to retail sales, Washington Farmers Cooperative offers agricultural services such as fertilizer application, general contracting for farm projects, horse‑boarding facilities, and livestock breeding programs. The co‑op’s history of mergers—most notably the 1980 union with Unicoi Farmers Co‑op—and the acquisition of Castlewood Farm Supply (now Southwest Virginia Farm Supply) demonstrate its longstanding commitment to meeting regional farming needs.

Customers can expect a cooperative environment where local farmer members have a voice in operations, and where the product lineup is designed to support everyday farm management, from feeding livestock to maintaining equipment and infrastructure.
