About University Farm, Fleet, Auto

Hometown Auto & Hardware has operated at three locations in Brush since the business was founded in 1962. We moved to our current location on Highway 34 after a fire destroyed the former store and its contents. The previous owner, Steve Albert, has been running Hometown Auto & Hardware since 2000 and has set the standard in Bruch.

Today we are called the University Farm, Fleet, Auto, and our team has more than 50 years of combined experience in the industry. We are proud of all our employees and work hard to deliver great service to our community.

We are a friendly, local hardware store with a reputation for excellence in customer service. We provide our customers with a range of products and services, including a rental department, small engine repair, and seasonal greenhouses. All this is combined with good old-fashioned customer service.

We are proud to be members of the Brush community! We participate in and contribute to many local events, including the Brush Car Show, the Eben Ezer Golf Tournament, the Fire Department Golf Tournament, and the Morgan County Tractor & Equipment Show. We are members of the Brush Chamber of Commerce.
