How
It All Started
Our
family has been operating this farm as a pick
your own berry and pumpkin ranch for 25 years.
It is owned and run by Ed Schaefer, and his two
sons Tyson and Zach. Ed’s brother’s
family runs
Roca Berry farm in Lancaster County, where
they too have been harvesting memories for their
customers for over a quarter a century.
Our
roots run deep in Nebraska’s frontier history.
Ed’s great grandfather along with one brother
left a Nebraska homestead to start a new ranch
in Dakota Territory during the early 1880’s.
Ed’s father grew up on a ranch near Wall
South Dakota, and after World War II he became
chief of Nutrition with the Public Health service
in Washington D.C. Ed’s father moved back
to Nebraska, after retiring from the government,
to establish the Swanson Center on Nutrition.
