    Was able to score a ton from Lowes earlier this season. The best cheap pellet I have ever burned. Also had great luck with Presto Logs this season. I also used some Agways and really don't think they are Hammers. They cake up the burn pot just like those dreaded Green Supremes. Was a little disappointed with the Cubex. Loved the Lacretes as always.

    They must be really marking the price up. I believe the plant is closer to me then you. Hmm oh well there a good pellet, so it is worth the price I guess.

    I saw a post were someone took a NEWP tour and they saw the Agway bags in the line up. So they could be NEWP's. Do you have a UPC code from the bags? Post a pic and will do some digging ofr ya!

    La Crete's are one of my fav's!

    My barcode scanner on the phone came up with the manufacturer as: Agway

    My local Agway never carries Agway brand, They sell name brand bags like Hamers. So I have never seen the skids. Often the skids have bill or tickets of origan. That might be what we need to investigate to find who's mill is bagging them.
