The annual Breakfast on the Farm is a free family-friendly event that allows the community to enjoy a locally-produced breakfast while having a close-to-home agricultural experience.
The public can experience how farmers care for their animals, how they produce wholesome and safe food, and how they care for the land.
Participants will enjoy a breakfast featuring an Ohio-grown and produced menu (served from 9 a.m. to noon) and a self-guided tour at the farm and meet the Herr families to learn about today’s modern tomato and grain farms. Tractors and farm equipment will be available for viewing, as well as cows, calves and horses. There will also be children’s activities and the opportunity to interact with commodity groups.
Fulton County Breakfast on the Farm is coordinated by the Fulton Soil and Water Conservation District, Fulton County Farm Bureau, and Fulton County OSU Extension, along with a community-based planning committee.
About the host farm
Triple H Farms is a fifth generation family farm operated by the Tommy and Jenny Herr family in partnership with Tom, Sr., and Lynn Herr. The Herr “Century Farm” has operated since 1910 when it originally began on US 20, west of Assumption growing grain, vegetables and tomatoes for the Toledo and Detroit markets. In 1991, the farm was incorporated to be Triple H Farms, Inc. and continues to grow high quality corn, soybeans, wheat, hay, tomatoes, and beef today. Triple H Farms is a member of the Ohio Cattlemen’s Association, the Gerald Grain Co-Op, and lifelong members of Fulton County Farm Bureau.
