2022 Adams County Annual Meeting

The Adams County Farm Bureau and Adams Soil and Water Conservation District held their annual meeting at the Adams County Fairgrounds Aug. 9 at 6 p.m. Homemade ice cream and snow cones were served to those in attendance. Attendees enjoyed fellowship and catching up with one another prior to the meeting being called to order. We were joined by several county office representatives, elected officials and long-time members! The evening included a short business meeting, where members elected trustees and state annual meeting delegates, and voted on policy and code changes. The organization is proud to recognize our volunteers and scholarship winners from the past year and to share the past year’s highlights!  The evening concluded after hearing from Nathan Brown, District 20 Trustee for the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, as he recapped the year’s highlights.

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.

Giving farmers a voice
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.

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.
