You may already be aware of the numerous food pantries located in our county, but did you know the Love Center alone helps over 450 families? That translates into over 250,000 pounds of food just so far this year. The money used to purchase that food is 100% donated. Over the last five years, Holmes County Farm Bureau has presented Harvest for Hunger, a dinner fundraiser which has raised over $50,000 to support the food pantries in Holmes County.

On Sept. 24, 2022 the Holmes County Farm Bureau will proudly present the sixth annual Harvest for Hunger, an elegant and unique benefit dinner, hosted at the John Miller Family Farm. The purpose of this event is to raise funds for the Love Center, who will help us disperse those funds to other food pantries in our county. The second goal of this event is to entertain our guests with amazing food and help promote the connection of food to agriculture in Holmes County. A live auction will follow dinner, with those proceeds being donated to the local food pantries as well.

As an integral part of the community, we are reaching out in the hopes that you can help us make this event a success. We are asking you to help sponsor the event with a monetary donation or item that can be auctioned to support the pantries. All sponsors will be recognized the night of the event.

Labor has always been an issue, mainly because we are a seasonal operation. So that's a challenge finding somebody who only wants to work three months out of a year, sometimes up to six months.

I appreciate the benefit of having a strong voice in my corner. The extras that are included in membership are wonderful, but I'm a member because of the positive impact to my local and state agricultural communities.

Strong communities
I see the value and need to be engaged in the community I live in, to be a part of the decision-making process and to volunteer with organizations that help make our community better.

Farm Bureau involvement has taught me how to grow my professional and leadership experience outside of the workforce and how to do that in a community-centric way.

With not growing up on a farm, I’d say I was a late bloomer to agriculture. I feel so fortunate that I found the agriculture industry. There are so many opportunities for growth.

Growing our Generation
Knowing that horticulture is under the agriculture umbrella and having Farm Bureau supporting horticulture like it does the rest of ag is very important.

If it wasn't for Farm Bureau, I personally, along with many others, would not have had the opportunity to meet with our representatives face to face in Washington.

So many of the issues that OFBF and its members are advocating for are important to all Ohioans. I look at OFBF as an agricultural watchdog advocating for farmers and rural communities across Ohio.
