A successful membership campaign begins with members who have a passion for Farm Bureau and can channel that passion into a conversation. A positive experience with Ohio Farm Bureau can naturally generate an opportunity for engaged conversation with anyone, including emerging leaders, young agricultural professionals and students.

To kickoff the 2022 volunteer membership campaign, Ohio Farm Bureau is hosting a virtual statewide membership rally Jan. 20 from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. to help prepare members to have those important conversations that lead to new members in the organization.

Giving farmers a voice
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.

Farm Bureau involvement
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.

Select Partner Program
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.

Advocacy
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.
