D.M. Ferry & Co.
In 1856, Milo T. Gardner, Dexter M. Ferry, and Eber F. Church[1] organized a small seed-growing company, M.T. Gardner & Company[2] (also known as Gardner, Ferry, and Church) in Detroit, Michigan. The first year the company did $6,000 in business. Its profits continued to be stable until 1865, when Ferry bought out Gardner's share and took over the company.[3] Ferry changed the company name to Ferry, Church & Co, and two years later, when Church retired,[4] Ferry changed the name again, this time to D.M. Ferry & Co.[2]
