The History
Schwartz Farms was founded in 1956 by Tom Schwartz Sr., and began as a 200 acre grain and dairy farm. Over the past 68 years they have evolved from a dairy farm, to a hog farm, and are now an all grain farm. In 2021 Schwartz Farms started its commercial elevator Westfield Specialty Grains but continue the Schwartz Farms business as well.
Today
Westfield Specialty Grains buys and sells commercial grain. This includes the full line up of corn, soybeans, wheat, oats and other small seeds, both the latest GMO an non-GMO.
They also contract acres for non-GMO soybean production, providing seed sales for those contracted acres. During harvest production acres are taken in and an offer is made for multiple market opportunities, including forward contracting and delayed pricing with a premium offered for specific varieties. 
Schwartz Farms is open 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Monday- Friday and 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. Saturday.
You can find the following seed brands:
Golden Harvest- Corn & GMO beans
AgVenture- Corn, GMO & Non-GMO beans

Certified Public- Wheat & Oats
Agri Maxx & Go Pro- Wheat
Preferred Seed- Assortment of small seeds

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.
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
We really appreciate what Farm Bureau has done to get people interested in this line of work and workforce development and getting people interested in this industry.
We work terrifically with the Ashtabula County Farm Bureau, hosting at least one to two outreach town hall events every year to educate new farmers and existing farmers on traditional CAUV and woodlands.
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.
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.
