Our History
1924
THE BEGINNING
Henry and Wilhelmina, married in 1923, began farming on 18 acres in Amherst, NY with a few cows, pigs, and 54 chickens.
Over the years, Henry would build several coops on their farm and most chickens were kept out on the range.
KREHER LINE
We began breeding the Kreher pure line strain of hen. Our focus was on poultry and egg production.
In addition to taking care of all of their animals, Henry & Wilhelmina had 8 children.

1930's
1940's
HATCHERY
In 1946, Henry, Sr. built a state of the art hatchery building onto his garage. This building housed the new Robbins Incubator and another incubator.
COURAGE
We purchased land for the existing Clarence farm and began focusing on pullet production.
The 2nd generation, Henry Jr. & Don Sr., join the family business.
Henry Sr. passed away in 1959, the same year as the worst-ever year in the egg industry.
Courage, conviction, and the strength of a family working together pulled them through.
1950's

1960's
COMMERCIAL EGGS
We expanded our commercial hen housing on the Clarence farm and started commercial egg production.
At this time, we were one of 8 commercial poultry farms in Erie County.
Eggs were sold to retail and wholesale customers out of the family house. The office was also in the house.

1980's
SUSTAINABILITY
We expanded the cooler to hold our eggs.
Additionally, we began our composting and fertilizer business, serving customers throughout the region. We take our chicken manure, compost it, and eventually turn it into pelleted fertilizer.
Our feed mill system was updated with a new, more accurate milling system.
MAKING OUR MARK
We were proudly selected as the upstate New York producer for Eggland's Best eggs.
Don Sr. and Henry Jr. retired from the business in 1992.
In 1999, we were awarded the contract to supply all the eggs to Tops Markets in New York State and PA.
We were the first farm in Erie County to implement a Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation (CAFO) plan for our manure.
1990's
2000's
CROP FARMING
We began organic crop production and became one of the largest organic crop farms in the state.
Our 4th generation began to join the family business.
In 2007, we acquired Wayne County Eggs. Two years later, in 2009, we began construction on Kreher Sunrise Farms for organic egg production.
CONTINUED GROWTH
We are growing! We continue to produce quality farm fresh eggs, partner with producers and processors on a wide variety of crop and grain farming, and produce our compost and fertilizer.
With both the 3rd and 4th generation and a hard working team of employees, we continue to work together for our customers and our community.
TODAY
EXPANSION
We increased production through contract farming and expanded our packing facility. The retail business moved out of the family house and into the market building.
Our 3rd generation began to join the family business.
We constructed our own feed mill. To remain efficient, we needed to grow our own feed for our hens.
1970's
