sustainability is at

the root of our business.

“Farm to Table” is a phrase we often see on menus. As a phrase, it’s appreciated and acknowledged but when you really think about what “farm to table” means it just makes so much sense.

Sustainable agriculture and local purchases are the foundations of the “Farm to Table” movement.

Sustainability is a commitment to farming responsibly and preserving the land for future use. It’s rotating crops to preserve the land each year. It’s ranchers using humane husbandry practices. It trying to use all of what we have to create more opportunity to produce in the future.

“Local” means driving fresh product down the road rather than trucking it across the country. It’s building a menu based on what’s in season. It’s celebrating the flavors of the region. Local is a commitment to enrich your community by sourcing food, jobs, and commerce from your neighbors. A commitment to buying local translates into a thriving community.

Blue Ribbon Meats & Seafood is fully committed to sustainable and local sourcing. In the fishing industry, it’s a commitment to source as many fish as possible directly from the coastal regions of the United States. When in season, we receive our perch and walleye directly from Lake Erie. Our Certified Angus Beef and Niman Ranch products are sourced from independent farms in the midwest. We proudly offer Ohio Proud pork, chicken, beef, and provisions whenever possible. And, we are focused to build more relationships with Ohio farmers to bring even more Ohio Proud products straight to your plate.
