LOCALLY SOURCED
While it can take extra work and expense to buy ingredients from local suppliers, I wouldn't do it any other way. Supporting local farmers is consistent with my values and the Ohio Pies triple bottom line (people, planet, profit). Below are some of the beloved local farms and businesses that make Ohio Pies treats so fresh and delicious.
Owner and Farmer Katherine Harrison raises animals on her Groveport farm with the same loving care that her mother and grandparents did before her. In addition to raising free range hens that supply all the eggs for Ohio Pies, she offers goat yoga, camping, a Sunday farmstand, learning opportunities and so much more!
Rock Dove Farm
Todd Schriver grows a wide variety of organic produce on his West Jefferson farm. I preserve his organic strawberries when they are in peak season to use throughout the year. Find him at Columbus farmers markets.
Martin Stehli grows all of his blueberries using organic practices (no sprays!). You can find him at Columbus farmers markets during blueberry season, or visit his farm just outside Columbus to pick your own blueberries!
Farmer Cory supplements my egg needs when the hens slow down at Harrison Farm. Cory and his family are dedicated to regenerative farming and pasture raised meat and eggs. Available all throughout Central Ohio.
Delicious freshly picked strawberries from farmer Gretchen. I stock up during the short season and fill my freezers!
Located in beautiful Utica, Ohio. Marshall and Cindy provide Ohio Pies with fresh apples, peaches and pumpkins. A fun destination for the family in the summer and fall months; be sure to visit!
Brian and his crew supply Ohio Pies with sweet and juicy peaches! They grow a wide variety of produce available at their farm, at local markets, or with their CSA. Located in Amanda, Ohio.
This is where I source many organic pantry staples and other locally produced goods. BNM is the oldest grocery co-op in the city! I love keeping my dollars local by supporting local businesses that give back to the community. Be sure to stop in to explore their unique variety of local products!
Suzie and Wesley grow a wide variety of fruit and veggies. They supply Ohio Pies with blackberries and strawberries, and anything else that looks good at the market! You can find them at many Columbus farmers markets during the growing season.
Roots Fruits and Shoots
Farmer Dana supplies Ohio Pies with delicious organically grown red raspberries!
Mike and Steve are expert fruit growers. Located in Chillicothe, find them at Columbus farmers markets during the summer. They supply Ohio Pies with pears, apples, peaches, berries, and more!
Farmer Dan and his dad frequent Columbus farmers markets year round. They supply Ohio Pies with all the squash used to make my pumpkin pies in the fall. The organic Georgia candy roaster squash are my favorite; delicious and creamy all on their own, only made better with sugar and spice. This is also where I get my organic sweet potatoes.
All milk and cream used in Ohio Pies comes from Snowville!
A Granville business that supplies my compostable clamshells, plus recycled bags I provide at markets.
Other Suppliers
I also frequent Costco and Luckys for odds and ends not available from my local friends above. Both these businesses have reputations of treating their workers fairly. Every choice each of us makes can create a strong community where we all take care of each other and our land.
