While 2020 has certainly been less than normal, your Knox County Farm Bureau remained hard at work. Now that 2020 is coming to an end, we are looking forward to the excitement of 2021 and bringing back some of the programs we were forced to cancel in 2020.

Knox County Fair           

Thanks to our amazing partnership with Kari Ball Agency and Farm Credit Mid-America, we were able to provide every Knox County Fair exhibitor with a free T-shirt that says “I Believe in the Future of Agriculture.” These were handed out in both sale rings on sale day and were made available at the Kari Ball Agency after the fair for those exhibitors who didn’t sell livestock.

Knox County hot foods donation

Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, Knox County Farm Bureau took action and donated over 600 pounds of chicken from CASE Farms to the hot foods programs in Knox County. We are thankful to have been able to help out in a time when CASE Farms was overrun with chicken and our local programs were in need!

Looking forward to 2021

Plans are currently underway for 2021 programs and events. Have an idea? Email [email protected] and let us know!

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.

Farm Bureau connections
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.

Giving farmers a voice
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.

Bringing the farm back to life
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.

Farm Bureau involvement
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.

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.
