I'd like to comment on the wonderful and generous character of Joseph Farmer. We purchased two large birds in the 80's(!) from Joseph, and lost track of him in the ensuing years.
We reconnected with him last summer at the ArtStravaganza! at the St. Louis Artist Guild Gallery at Oak Knoll Park in Clayton MO. We told him our "ladies" had rusted a bit and their heads had separated.
Joseph immediately offered to PICK THEM UP AT OUR HOME, and repair them FREE OF CHARGE. He also proceeded to DELIVER THEM BACK TO US at home (20 miles each way)! Now that is caring and out-of-this-world customer service!
Needless to say, we are eagerly awaiting spring to visit him and add to our collection by this wonderful artist.
