Farmer Profile:
Frye Family – Hopeway
Dairy
The Frye family founded Hopeway Dairy in 1975 and
began their partnership with Turner’s that same
year. This year they’re celebrating their 35th
Anniversary of partnership with Turner’s!
As you travel up the sloping driveway of Hopeway
Dairy the first thing that catches your eye is the
“Hopeway Dairy” sign on their glistening barn. The
farm sits atop a ridge with a view of farms as far
as the eye can see – fields filled with corn, silos,
and bright red and white barns dot the landscape.
The Frye family farms 1,000 acres of corn, alfalfa,
and soy beans while milking around 250 beautiful
Holstein cows everyday.
