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

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.
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.
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.
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.
