C.T. Garvin has closed their Huntsville location on Holmes Avenue after a long tradition of service to the area.

This iconic landmark located in downtown Huntsville was built in the 90s after 50 years of business in several Huntsville locations.

The store had a range of products including:

  • Lawn and garden supplies
  • Dog, cat and livestock feed and supplies
  • Animal health supplies
  • Fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides
  • Garden seed

A business of generations

C.T. Garvin Feed and Seed has served the Huntsville and Elkmount area since 1934 when America was at its lowest during the Great Depression. With two locations, one in Elkmount and one in dowtown Huntsville, the business has been a local landmark for years.

We confirmed that the Elkmont location will stay open per usual hours.
