Big Fish Farms

On our Clermont County Board of Trustees, we have several members who have small local ag businesses that we would love to showcase below!

Vista Grand Ranch

In an effort to simplify their lives and improve the quality of living, Clermont County Board Trustee, Cindy Cassell and her husband, David Uible, purchased an old dairy farm on 171 acres in New Richmond, Ohio in 1994. They named it Vista Grand Ranch in keeping with its spectacular vistas. They provide certified American buffalo meat to those around the county! For more information, check out vistagrandranch.com.

Flourish and Roam at 1:Nine Ranch

Josh and Sarah Ison own Flourish and Roam at 1:Nine Ranch. They raise Black Angus Cattle, pasture raised hogs and pasture raised chickens that spend their entire lives roaming the rolling, rich, green hills overlooking the Ohio River Valley. Experience the difference in taste when animals and people grow and thrive together in a healthy way as a result of a favorable environment and learn more at  shopflourishandroam.com.

Big Fish Farms

Renee Koerner and her family own and operate Big Fish Farms. At Big Fish Farms they are dedicated to sustainably rearing and ranching the amazing American Paddlefish. Every part of the process, from spawning fry to making caviar, is under their supervision. Almost all “farmed” caviars are made from fish raised in tanks, eating a prepared pelleted diet, but they “ranch” their fish which gives them plenty of room to swim freely with only 10 to 20 fish per water acre. They call it free range caviar. For more information, visit bigfishfarms.com.

Farm Bureau connections
To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.

Giving farmers a voice
The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.

10-year campaign for safer roads
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.

I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.

Farm Bureau involvement
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.

Select Partner Program
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.

Advocacy
So many of the issues that OFBF and its members are advocating for are important to all Ohioans. I look at OFBF as an agricultural watchdog advocating for farmers and rural communities across Ohio.
