“Raising a record breaking $100,000 will allow the Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation to continue our focus to inspire and educate the next generation of agricultural professionals through scholarships, innovative programming and grants.

The event was held June 27 at The Country Club at Muirfield Village and hosted 186 golfers.

Through our work, we are building a steady flow of young people with the knowledge, training and skills to enhance the industry.
