About the Farm

Background

Holthouse Farms traces its roots back to 1903 when Jan Holthuis and his sons established the farm in Celeryville, Ohio. Over the years, the farm has been passed down through generations, growing from a small family operation to a major provider of produce to cities east of the Mississippi River. The farm expanded significantly in 2003 with the acquisition of Doug Walcher Farms, allowing them to offer a wider variety of produce.

Practices

Holthouse Farms emphasizes the importance of sustainability, a principle they have adhered to for over a century. They believe in being caretakers of the land, ensuring that it remains fertile and productive for future generations. The farm focuses on local markets, ensuring that produce harvested in the morning is processed, shipped, and often on shelves within 24 hours, reducing food miles and environmental impact.

The Rest

Holthouse Farms is committed to food safety, continually investing in and updating their safety programs. They offer a wide range of produce and pride themselves on their quick turnaround and fresh products. The farm's operations benefit the local economy by keeping money within the community.
