Welcome to the official Richfield Township website
The Richfield Township offices are located at 3951 Washburn Rd., Berkey, Oh. 43504. Although the first settlers, Pliny Lathrop, Jacob Wolfinger and David Hendrickson arrived in 1834, “Richfield Township” was not actually organized and named until 1839. The presiding pioneers choose the name “Richfield” because of the rich nature of the soil, some of the richest in Lucas County.
Today, Richfield Township is a growing, rural, agricultural community situated in the extreme Northwest corner of Lucas County and encompasses 22.659 miles. The Township provides well maintained roads and the best fire, EMS to its residents. We are dedicated to maintaining our rural identity, preserving our heritage, and balancing our growth.
We in Richfield Township take great pride in our community. We hope this website serves you well.
