One slight correction in "years in business": John Leston got Pioneer Garden & Feed up and running in 1965 not 1995. Previously it had been a supplier of feed and seed to the local farmers since around 1912 and since it still sells both vegetable, flower and grass seed plus small animal and bird feed, the county had named it the longest on-going business of its kind in DuPage County. Since John's passing a number of years ago, his son Ron took over the store and, with the botanical genius Bill, keeps the business going even in these hard economic times.
