Hayrides

Our hay rides are a favorite among the young and young at heart. Groups of all sizes are welcome, from Scouts to Church groups. The Berry Barn provides a wonderful weekend afternoon for families of all age groups and sizes.  Schedule them ahead of time for a group.

Decorative Corn Stalks

During the autumn, we will have decorative corn stalks for sale. Add a special seasonal touch to your home or garden by combining these with a couple of our pumpkins or with your own fall harvest.



At the Marshall Family Farm, we grow strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries. When berries are in season, you can either pick your own or take home berries that we have pre-picked and packaged for you.

Even when berries are not in season, we offer jars of the toppings we make from the fresh berries and use in our own Pastry Mill.



Farm Fresh Fare

We offer cooked-to-order our own fresh, farm-raised steak burgers and sausage, served with a variety of condiments. Add freshly cut potato fries or grilled peppers and onions to make a hearty meal. If you're looking for comfort food, try our home-style chicken and noodles as an entree or as a side dish.

The Pastry Mill

For dessert or a light snack, try our freshly made French waffles, funnel cakes, or baby elephant ears.

Our pastries include flour that is made right here from scratch. Ohio winter wheat is grown on the Marshall Family farm, and once the wheat and tares are separated, the wheat is ground into flour. This is done right before your eyes using an antique John Deere hit-and-miss engine.

To make our French waffles and other pastries even more delicious, you can add your choice of strawberry or raspberry fruit topping. The fruit was picked here on the Marshall Family farm and made into topping, following a special recipe, at a locally owned cannery.
