ProfilesPublished on 10/09/2006 Staff Tim Street joined the Ohio Farm Bureau staff in 2001 as organization director for Fairfield, Hocking, Pickaway and Ross counties; he became organization director in Delaware and Franklin counties in 2004. In his role, he serves as a liaison between the county Farm Bureaus and the Ohio Farm Bureau and assists counties with their programs. He is a 2001 graduate of Ohio State University with a bachelor’s degree in agronomy. While a student, he held internships with Monsanto and Ohigro. The Marion County native was active in 4-H and FFA and caught the farming bug from helping on his uncle’s grain farm. He and his wife, Amanda, operate their own small grain farm in Marion and Union counties. They also sell straw. The Streets teach Sunday School at Salem Evangelical Church in Marion. Tim is president of the alumni association for the Alpha Gamma Sigma fraternity at Ohio State; he also is vice president of the fraternity’s national executive council. "I definitely enjoy working with Farm Bureau folks and visiting with farmers and learning their concerns and issues. I always wanted to be a farmer and working at Farm Bureau, and farming part-time has been a great avenue for me to stay in agriculture. I enjoy all the friendships I’ve made through Farm Bureau, and I really enjoy serving the ag community," he said. | |
