In 1970, Mike and Renee Holen embarked on their first adventure together of raising five children on their family farm. Knowing that farming, much like golf, is a game of skill vs. opportunity, the name and slogan were born: “Holen One Farms – it’s a long shot”.
Nearly thirty years later, when the children had grown, Mike and Renee decided to retire from farming and brave another long shot— the food concession business. They spent that winter building their concession trailer, perfecting their menu, and polishing their golf game. In the spring of 1999, the next phase of their adventure began. They spent the next decade traveling throughout the Midwest sharing with their patrons their food. During this time, they had so many customers that wanted the secret behind their tender and juicy dteak-on-a-dtick and pork loin, that the idea to sell their original recipe marinade began. They soon added the BBQ dipping & glazing sauce and the unique java rib & roast rub to their select line of Holen One Farms products. Based in Loomis, Nebraska.
