The Greene County Farm Bureau may award up to one $1,500 scholarship for the 2022-2023 academic year. The scholarship recipient will be recognized at the Greene County Farm Bureau 2022 Annual Meeting to be held in August.

Recipient will be selected from applications that meet the mandatory criteria. A scholarship selection committee, appointed by the Greene County Farm Bureau Board of Trustees, will evaluate the scholarship applications and interviews. Then they will present their recommendations for the award to the Board for approval. From the applications deemed valid, the committee will evaluate each candidate’s academic performance, agricultural involvement and activities.

The purpose of the scholarship program is:
  • To financially assist and reward a college-bound high school senior and/or college enrolled student who intends to further their education.
  • To recognize the present and future scholastic ability of young adults.
  • To provide scholarships for graduating seniors and/or students pursuing undergraduate degrees. Preference will be given to those enrolled in an agricultural or agriculturally related field of study and who are under the age of 25 at the time of application.
  • To select recipients based upon merit, abilities, and accomplishments, who are either active members or children of active members, with preference given to those who are active in agriculture-related activities, and those majoring in an agriculture-related field.

Financial need does not enter into the selection process, and financial information is not requested for the scholarship application.

For additional information, please contact the Greene County Farm Bureau at 937-382-4407, [email protected]. Office hours are Mondays-Thursdays, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.

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.

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.
