NEW HAMPTON, IA — Five Star Cooperative is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement in principle to acquire A&K Feed & Grain, a respected agricultural provider located in Lime Springs, Iowa. The acquisition, set to close this fall, marks a significant step forward in Five Star’s mission to expand its service area and enhance its offerings to the farming community across North Iowa and Southern Minnesota.
