Hey, everyone! You may remember us from last year’s fair, but we’d like to say ‘Hello’ again! We would like to introduce ourselves as the 2018 Ohio Farm Bureau state fair interns. For the past few months, we have been working hard and having a blast planning Ohio Farm Bureau’s Land and Living Exhibit in the Nationwide Donahey Ag & Hort Building at the Ohio State Fair. Abby and I are so very excited that we will be with you again! Please be sure to check back with us on our journey to another fantastic, educational and fun-filled fair!

Growing up on a small farm in Mount Vernon, located in Knox County, I discovered my love for agriculture at a young age. This fall, I will be a senior at Oklahoma State University studying agricultural education. This summer, I am super excited to once again have the opportunity to share my love for agriculture with fair goers at the Nationwide Donahey Ag & Hort Building at the Ohio State Fair.

I just wrapped up the second year of my journey to becoming an agriscience educator and will continue my education at The Ohio State University in the fall. Being a 4-H and FFA member in Perry County, I realized that my three favorite things in life were agriculture, teachable moments and fun. This summer, I have the awesome opportunity to combine all three of these in the Land and Living Exhibit! I can’t wait to see you there!
To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.
The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.
