Rooted in Our Commitment
Fresh Forward is a family farm cooperative that represents independent farmers who grow apples and other fresh market produce across the Great Lakes region. Our mission is simple: Provide the highest-quality fresh market produce to help independent farms and communities thrive.
As stewards of the land, our farmers work year-round to deliver the seasonal produce that people crave and deserve.

FFA ORDERS
Fresh Forward Farms partners with the Ohio FFA (Future Farmers of America) each year by supplying fresh local fruit from our farms. FFA Advisors work with our sales team in the fall for their December fruit fundraiser. Once the order is placed, our farms harvest, pack, and deliver the fruit directly to the school!
