Hello! We are Pioneer Trails Tree Farm in Mahoning County. We are excited to take an adventure with you for this week’s #TakeOverTuesday. You see we need a little help to cut down 10 beautiful Christmas trees for Operation Evergreen. Before we get started lets first thank all of our troops, active and veterans, and the forty brave volunteers we had come to the event this weekend. Thank you also for the donations from Covelli Enterprises, Inc., Poland Union Elementary PTO and Lilly & Haley Trolio. SO ARE YOU READY to brave the weather and cut down some trees?! I know our troops overseas will appreciate it. . . . #TakeOverTuesday this week is with Pioneer Trails Tree Farm in Mahoning County.

You will need a saw, a sled, and a warm jacket to find the perfect tree for our troops! Pioneer Trails Tree Farms loves donating trees every year for Operation Evergreen. Operation Evergreen is a service project developed by the Ohio Christmas Tree Association members in 1995 to bring Christmas cheer to military units serving overseas – honoring them for the duties they perform overseas.

Now lets head back out to the fields! Thank you to Dave Grimm, pictured here, for being a veteran and helping us out for Operation Evergreen for the last couple years. You have given so much for our country and you continue to give back to those who are currently serving. I think Dave has helped us pick out an awesome tree! Now he just needs to hold it while we cut it down. TIMBER!!! . . . #TakeOverTuesday this week is with Pioneer Trails Tree Farm in Mahoning County.

This tree is ready to haul back to our barn and I think we are ready for some hot chocolate! Finding the perfect tree is an easy task at Pioneer Trails Tree Farm, with 35 acres of fir, spruce, and pine trees to explore. Planning to cut your own tree? No need to bring a saw, we have plenty! Just remember to bring the whole family (pets are always welcome too)! . . . #TakeOverTuesday this week is with Pioneer Trails Tree Farm in Mahoning County.

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.

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.
