Comprehensive History

While the Armstrong family was one of the first settler families in Canaan Township, it was not until 1932 that Raymond Armstrong established Armstrong Farms with his duck-raising operation. He started with marketing around 150 ducks per week, growing to around 1000 ducks per week by the late 1950s[1]. Raymond's sons Richard and John began raising turkeys as an outgrowth of the FFA program at Burbank High School. The farm operations included producing, dressing, and distributing the ducks (primarily to larger metropolitan areas in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York) and turkeys (marketed more locally).
