“Our Story”
At Stoltzfus Mineral Supply we’ve always been a family oriented business. “John Stoltzfus“ the father of the Family was a hard working dairy farmer until April of 2013. In 2011 he bought the Ag business called Hess Farm Supply, this business distributed Ag products like seeds and minerals to local farmers and feed mills. A lot of hard work went into running the Family Dairy farm while also growing the Ag Business. However, by 2013 he had grown the business enough to support his large family. So the Dairy cows were sold and his primary focus became “Hess Farm Supply”. In 2015 his son (Matt) started helping out, and in February of 2022 another son (Dave) came to join the business. On May 12th, 2022 our lives were changed forever. “John Stoltzfus” passed away suddenly of a heart attack at the age of 50. Leaving behind his wife and 11 children. With John being the sole owner of the business the workload that was left behind felt like a mountain. Non-the-less as a family we were determined to keep the family business & our fathers legacy going. Our tagline “A Legacy Lives On” was created in honor of the Legacy he started that we knew we wanted to carry on. And so we set out to find new opportunities. In September 2022 we filed a name change and became “Stoltzfus Mineral Supply”. In the fall of 2023 we were made aware that the Apple Cracker Deer Feed Brand was forsale. And so in October 2023 we made the purchase and about 2 months later we had another opportunity to acquired Dirt Digger Deer Attractants. These additions are what brought on our sales team Steve Fisher, who’s actually married into the Stoltzfus Family & Robert Warden, known to some as “Mineral Bob”.
Growing up as a family we didn’t have much time for hunting, this didn’t change our love for the outdoors. John always got excited watching the deer outback in his soybean fields so it was no surprise that he kept a pair of binoculars in the cow-stable cabinet! This excitement grew for the boys and at age 14 & 15 Matt & Dave started hunting on the family farm. Our dad supported us in our hunting and by 2021 he started doing a small amount of hunting himself. I will say he was not the type that could sit long if he wasn’t seeing deer.
As a family our passion for the outdoors is stronger than ever. As many of you probably know there is a certain type of peace and healing that comes with spending time in God’s creation. The rippling of a stream, the early morning singing of birds, or the evening closing with the soft sound of crickets chirping as you slip out of your stand are things that settle deep into your heart. Can we advise you to live your life with no regrets? Make time for your family, your wife, your children & your friends. These precious moments that you spend together will last as memories. You never know when someone next to you will be called into eternity.
We want to close with our commitment for our customers.
We plan to continue with high quality products that will give you a fair chance at growing that buck of a lifetime, attracting that 1st buck you’ll ever take or the doe that’s meat for your family this winter. Not every deer that gets harvested will be a trophy. No matter the size of the deer just remember, it’s the moments with the people you love that matters the most! Our customers mean the world to us, thanks for being a part of our story!
