📣 Important Update for Our Umbarger Customers 📣

We’re excited to share that we’ve switched to a new mass texting platform to better communicate with all of you!

You will now start receiving texts from a new 507 number — that’s us! This system allows us to send one message to everyone, but it will come through to you individually.

This morning was our first test run! If you received the message, please reply back with your order for May.

👉 Reminder: When you reply, your message goes directly to Dan & Grace only — not the entire group.

A few helpful notes:

▪️This new number is intended for feed orders only
▪️If you have questions or need anything outside of orders, please call or text Dan or Grace directly
▪️We recommend saving this number in your phone as “Erickson Umbarger Feed Orders”
▪️If you did not receive a text, please reach out to us ASAP so we can get you added
▪️If you would prefer to opt out of these monthly texts, just let Dan or Grace know

We’re hopeful this will help improve communication, increase efficiency, and streamline our process!

As always, please reach out if you have any questions — and thank you so much for your continued support!
