Our Story
Ozark Fisheries is a 4th generation family owned and operated ornamental goldfish and koi farm. Founded in 1926, Ozark Fisheries has been raising and selling quality goldfish and koi throughout North America for over 95 years.
Two Family Farm Locations
With two locations to better serve our customers, our headquarters is located near Stoutland, Missouri. In 1970, Ozark Fisheries purchased a second farm in Martinsville, Indiana. Originally established in 1899 as Grassyfork Fisheries, our Indiana location is the oldest, continuously operated private fish farm in the United States.

Fish Farm Tours
Group tours are available at both farm locations. Tours are an hour long and include farm history with visits to our hatchery, production, and shipping facilities. All tours must be scheduled in advance.
Circle F Beef
