Barn at Night

Logan County Farm Bureau and the Logan County Land Trust are working with the Knowlton Library in Bellefontaine for a fun evening for kids on March 22 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Meet the author of this new release agriculture children’s literature book, Michelle Houts, and stay for her reading of the book. Don’t forget to take part in the snacks, kids’ crafts and other activities about agriculture. We also will have books on sale for purchase

Barn at Night is a great way to learn more about the magic and adventures that happen on farms, even at night! The book follows a father and a daughter as they care for farm animals in two visits to the barn on a working farm. The book features cows, barn cats, horses, and other farm animal friends and their babies’ names, with fun vocabulary building for young readers – and it ends with the beautiful surprise arrival of a new foal. Illustrated by Jen Betton in glowing watercolors, Barn at Night makes a wonderful bedtime story that is great to share as a family.

The book is authored by Celina resident Michelle Houts who has authored 12 books. We hope you will join us! Please call our office at 877-775-7642 to learn more. 

My first recommendation in your journey is to start out with a local farming friend or mentor along with joining an organization like Ohio Farm Bureau.

We’re just so thankful for the Farm Bureau and the foundation for helping put this together. And of course, the Boyert family for the vision they had with this grant. It’s jumping us forward 10 years. It’s unbelievable.

Bringing the farm back to life
It wasn’t until I joined the Wilmington College Collegiate Farm Bureau that I truly saw how my passion could translate into leadership, advocacy and a career.

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
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.
