With my youngest son being a graduate of YSU and working for a television station in Youngstown, he always knows the best place to take us when we are in the area. White House Fruit Farms has always stood out as a favorite. Receiving their products as gifts when Tyler comes home to visit is also a pleasant surprise.
Located in rural Canfield, Ohio, there has been a farm on this site since 1815, and they've been growing produce for almost 100 years. Today, the farm also boasts a beautifully restored barn from 1881 that is open year-round as a farm market. They have a great story on the farm's history on their website; I would encourage you to read it. It will bring a perspective to your visit as you can think about the family history and culture of the farm. Read the White House Fruit Farm Story Here.
White House grows more than 20 varieties of apples and sells those, along with other Apple products – applesauce, apple jelly, apple butter, and more. During the all, White House has fresh-made, preservative-free apple cider. If you are a fan of apple cider, you need to take a trip to Canfield. I love apple cider, and I can honestly say that this is the best apple cider I have ever tasted. On my trip back home, I regretted not having purchased more.
Beyond the apples and cider – White House allows guests to pick their own strawberries, purchase fresh produce and deli meats and cheeses, and their bakery – you cannot leave without trying the blueberry donuts. If that blueberry donut isn't enough for you – don't worry; you can take the fantastic aromatic scent home in a candle! A couple of my other favorites from the farm include their sauces, the Hot Pepper Jelly, and their Bloody Mary Mix. In the pictures below, you will see how we enjoyed the summer's Bloody Mary Mix, thanks to our friend and neighbor, Laura (aka Boo'sBoo's Drinks)!
Whether you are there for baked items, produce, or one of the many farm activities and events, the White House Fruit Farm will provide a memorable experience for everyone. See below for some additional links to a few of their activities.
