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.
