Florida Firms

Operating from Monticello, Florida since 2003, First Flight Feed is an animal feed distribution business serving Monticello, East Tallahassee, Thomasville in Georgia, and the surrounding areas. The company distributes ADM and Kalmbach feeds, with a focus on equine nutrition alongside broader livestock feed solutions. Its product range covers grain and supplements for beef and dairy cattle, swine, sheep, goats, poultry, equine, backyard chickens, rabbits, and wildlife.

The business was founded by Dacia Funkhouser Johnson, a former World Hunter Champion Rider and 1991 Pan Am Games Puerto Rican Equestrian Coach, and grew out of the founders’ experience feeding ADM grain to horses at their fox hunting farm in Indiana. It is operated by Chris Haines, with involvement from Riley Haines, a USEF Certified Trainer and ANRC Certified Rider, giving the operation hands-on equestrian and agricultural background.

Delivery drives most of the work, with the company reporting that roughly 90 percent of its operations involve delivering feed and stacking grain neatly in customers’ barns. Self-pickup is available for smaller orders, and for large bulk needs the company can arrange direct delivery from ADM’s Cordele, Georgia facility. First Flight Feed also provides consultation services and has access to nutritionists who specialize in various agricultural animals. Before recommending a program, the team conducts farm assessments that evaluate pasture quality, water conditions, exercise access, and existing feeding practices.

Beyond feed sales, the business operates as a third-generation horse farm that hosts horse shows, runs lesson programs, brokers horse sales, and competes in regional hunter and jumper events. The company is located at 101 Fox Hollow Road, Monticello, Florida 32344, and can be reached at (970) 275-8343 or by email at ca_haines@yahoo.com. Self-pickup hours run Monday through Sunday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and deliveries are made Monday through Friday.
