The Belmont County Farm Bureau held another successful backpack program event this past weekend on Nov. 20 and 21. We had about 18,000 meals that needed to be packed within the two days. Within those two days, we had about 300 volunteers that came to help package meals. We had several different clubs, politicians, our Ohio FFA State Sentinel Faith Galavich, several sports teams, and many other organizations assist with the effort. We would not have had the success we did without all our volunteers. We can’t thank everyone enough for all the help and generosity.
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.
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.
