The Bob Evans Farm in Rio Grande, Ohio with a Bob Evans restaurant (left) The Bob Evans Restaurant chain started from a single truck stop diner near the Bob Evans Farm in Rio Grande, Ohio in 1946. The restaurant chain started up after Bob Evans began processing and packaging his own sausage for his diner.
The ranch has more the character of a family farm with many hundred year-old buildings and varied livestock than a commercial guest ranch. It has been owned and operated since 1971 by Bayard and Mel Fox. Bayard worked overseas for many years while Mel grew up on a farm in the shadow of Mt. Kilimanjaro in East Africa. Their son, Richard, and his wife, Hadley, are now also involved in the day to day running of the ranch.
