We are currently farming over 3000 acres of crops, which include corn, wheat, soybeans and sweet corn. In the summer, our primary focus is growing and selling our premium quality sweet corn. Most of the sweet corn we grow is sold at The Corn Shed, which is located on our farm in Ruchsville. We also sell a whole host of fruits and vegetables that are produced on local farms in Kutztown and Kempton. Knowing the growers ensures us that we are selling the freshest fruit and vegetables possible to the Lehigh Valley region.

At Newhard Farms we use the safest green technology available. Our soil fertility program is based on regular soil testing, applying nutrients only as necessary to maintain a healthy productive soil and support optimum crop growth while protecting the environment from over application of nutrients. Every farm we operate has an approved NRCS conservation plan. Most of our crops are grown using no till or minimum till methods to prevent erosion and conserve the soil for generations to come.
Our fields are soil tested yearly and any nutrients removed by the growing crops are replenished following harvest. We also practice diverse crop rotations, which enriches the soil and helps prevent disease and pest outbreaks. We are also blessed with an abundant supply of fresh water for irrigation purposes of our sweet corn. This guarantees every kernel is as plump and sweet as it can possible be. All sweet corn grown on our farm is non GMO.
In 2023 we installed 125 solar panels on top of our equipment storage shed. These solar panels are powering almost all of the energy that we need to run our farm in Ruchsville.
