About Dalton Farms

Edward & Rebecca Dalton (along with their 3 sons) Isaac, Lucas and Simon are the 7th generation at Dalton Farms LLC in Wakeman, OH! When they took over the farm, they had a feeling of obligation but have since found it to be their passion with a specific goal in mind - grow a healthy and affordable product.

They knew that in order to be sustainable for years to come, they would need to make changes to current practices. Although change is scary, they felt it was necessary. In 2019, they decided to transition half of their 2000-acre farm to organic production and started growing organic crops for the first time in years. 

In addition to organic crops, they farm 1000 acres of conventional crops, raise beef and collaborate with other local farms to supply farm raised meat to their customers like chicken and pork. It is important to them that the meat they are raising and selling be all natural and raised on a local family farm. No added hormones. No unnecessary antibiotics. You won’t find better quality for the price!

Fun Facts About Whole Chickens

  • A whole chicken typically weighs between 3–5 pounds, making it ideal for family meals or leftovers.

  • Buying a whole bird is often more economical than individual cuts, while still offering all the same great flavor.

  • Every part of the chicken can be used — from juicy roasted meat to rich, nourishing broth made with the bones.

Cooking Ideas

  • Roast: Classic oven-roasted chicken with herbs and veggies. Crispy skin + juicy meat.

  • Grill/Rotisserie: Slow-grilled or rotisserie-style for smoky flavor and tender meat.

  • Slow Cooker: Add seasoning and let it cook low and slow for fall-apart tenderness.

  • Homemade Stock: Simmer bones and leftovers for nutrient-rich chicken broth.

Nutritional Benefits

  • High in protein to keep you energized.

  • Provides essential nutrients like niacin, selenium, phosphorus, and B vitamins.

  • Skin-on chickens offer healthy fats that boost flavor and satiety.

Cooking Temperatures

  • Cook a whole chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

  • Always check the thickest part of the thigh (without touching the bone) for accuracy.

So Great, the product is grade A, the people are amazing, they are very personable, kind and have a great business. We have not purchased meat from anywhere else for a year now, and we don't plan too. This is a great place

We found Dalton's about 6 months ago. As far as my family is concerned, we think it's a little gem. We buy all of our beef and eggs there and nowhere else. The ground beef has great flavor, great texture, and tastes better than any store-bought hamburger or ground beef you can find. The steaks are delicious. The family is magnificent, people making a living working hard and delivering a great product. The quality is above reproach, and the freshness is excellent.

Dalton's has the best beef in Ohio. We have tried several farmers & theirs is the most flavorful & tender.

This meat taste just the same as we use to raise our Holsteins. The meat melts in your mouth. And, what you make in the crock pot comes out so tender you need a spoon to get it out because it falls apart. Excellent is what I rate their meat.

I have tried several mail order farms. Most were good but Dalton Farms is exceptional. Their ground beef is tender and no rubbery pieces like I experienced with other farms. I made burgers several times and overcooked one batch and they were still tender. I bought the boneless ham for Easter and everyone raved how good it was. I noticed not only was it flavorful but moist. The best moist ham ever. Never buy from the grocery or spiral sliced again. Shop local everyone !!!!!

Really pleased with our 1/2 of beef. The freshness plus the personalized cut selection was so appreciated. How can we go back to store bought? Love the clean operation they run. We will be back for more! Thank you!!

This is the second year I got a quarter beef from Dalton Farms. Cheaper and fresher than buying beef at the store and the quality is so good. This is how I will continue to buy all my beef in the future

We purchased two 5+ pound standing rib roasts. The roasts looked great with medium marbling. Dalton Farms had separated the rib bones from the meat and put them back in place with butchers twine, saving me a half hour.. We used an applewood rub and hickory smoked it @ 210 until the internal temp was 130. After a 10 minute rest we sliced off a couple of steaks. They were remarkable! Great flavor and that firm tenderness you look for in a prime rib. In a good restaurant this would have been a $50+ steak. Next time I think that I will season with a little salt and pepper instead of a rub. Kudos to Rebecca and the Dalton Farms crew. 5 stars!

We have purchased individual steaks from Dalton’s a few times. We decided it would be best to order 1/2 of beef. We picked everything up this week, and everything was nicely packaged and organized. The meat is always so delicious we receive from Dalton Farms. Would certainly recommend their products to anyone. Pricing was great too!

Absolutely THE BEST beef I have ever had! The prices are good and I’m so happy to have discovered Dalton Farm! The family is warm, welcoming, and devoted to offering the best products. What more can you ask for?! Definitely recommend 100% to anyone I can! When I can (I work A LOT) I travel about 35 minutes just to buy from them and it’s the highlight of my day. My older kids will even go get stuff when I can’t or enjoy going with me when I do!
