Meet John, Diane and Phil Riehm, the owners and operators of Riehm Produce Farm located at 7244 N. SR 53 outside of Tiffin. John is the fourth generation to run the family-owned farm, started in 1911, and Phil will be the fifth. After more than 100 years, John says, “we’re still doing the same produce thing they were doing back then.” John is also a unique family farm owner as his father passed away when he was only eight years old. His mother and other family members were able to care for the farm until John was old enough to take over. John and Diane’s son, Phil, was eager to learn about the family business. After earning a crop science and agricultural business degree, he pursued his own career path for several years before he came home to Riehm Farm in 2014. “With the CSA and everything here, I wanted to get back to my roots,” he said. “I always wanted to come back to the family farm.” The Riehms have added many new aspects to their farm over the years. Not only do they grow and sell all types of produce year-round, they also sell eggs, meats and cheeses, run a market, participate in local Farmers Markets and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA), host fun family events and more. The CSA is a great way for consumers to purchase local, seasonal food directly from local farmers. Riehm Farms currently have 300 farm shareholders, but are hoping to reach 400 this year. You can register to be a CSA by May 15th. They also hold seven different yearly events: two Farm-to-Fork Dinners, Barnyard Fun, a 5K Run/Walk (proceeds always benefit a local charity), Trick or Treat Night (featuring a corn maze), Christmas Trees & Family Fun, and the newest event, an Open House.
