Local Meat, Egg & Dairy Farms Surrounding Canton Ohio
The grade is not what makes these foods healthy and high quality. It's all about how the animals were fed and raised. Simply: animals should eat what they were meant to eat, roam around outside in the sun, and they won't need hormones or antibiotic injections.
These farmers often sell directly to customers if you call or you may find them at local farmers' markets. |

13222 Congress Lake Ave NE Hartville, OH 44632 (330) 418-5847 harmoncreekfarms.com |
We didn’t set out to become farmers. We all had very diverse backgrounds and interests so that makes this all the more unique. With changing views and outlooks, health concerns about food on both the micro and macro level, and worry about the economy, we started looking into the possibility of raising our own food. Gardening runs in the family so produce was never an issue, but livestock was a whole different ball game. After years of research, visits to farms and farming pioneers, we began to seriously consider starting our own beef farm. But not a conventional farm, a 100% grass fed beef, pasture based farm.

We are a family-owned, family-operated farm following globally recognized best practices in producing food the way nature intended. We believe that food, when grown in accordance with the laws of natural systems, can heal our bodies and our lands at the same time. If that's not all, the taste is second to none. A note on "organic": We have made a conscious decision to not use the government-backed organic certification. All of our methodologies for food production meet or exceed organic labeling guidelines. Every customer is our inspector. Every customer sees what we do and certifies what we say is what we do. Hop in a car, ride a bike or saddle up a horse to drop by for a tour of the farm and see how our mission statement is becoming a reality. |
"I've been getting my fresh eggs, chicken and ground beef (I've also tried a couple steaks) from Zoe Farms over the past few months. The difference in taste is amazing. Ive taken my 2 year old grand daughter to see the chickens running around.... this is what a farm used to and still should look like! I follow them on Facebook and have learned so much from watching the techniques they use. So happy we have healthy options!" - Cindy Y.
