Our Story
Beards of the Old Northwest was founded around a goat & a county fair. Our founders, Ryon Davis & Willis (Chuck) Neff, wanted to sponsor a pygmy goat at the county fair to help out a fellow 4H family. After attending the beard and mustache national championships in PA back in 2010, they felt inspired to have a name on the sponsor's banner - thus was born... The Beards of the Old Northwest.
Ohio historically falls in the Old Northwest Territory (well before the Luisiana Purchase sent the, sadly, clean-shaven Lewis & Clark out exploring beyond the Mississippi River). It seemed like a great fit! Beards, pioneers, bad ass guys... too perfect.
Unknown number of Facebook likes later, we're one of the largest beard and mustache clubs in our area. We grow because we are not afraid to have a good time and DO WHAT WE WANT!
We have fun everywhere we go and everyone is welcome in this club (even the hairless!) Check out one of our events sometime. I guarantee you'll want to come back.
