Adams County Farm Bureau

Keith HolbrookEffective in August, Keith Holbrook will serve as Adams County Farm Bureau president.  Keith grew up working with his grandfather on his farm in Adams County. Leaving the farm to pursue his education, he earned his doctorate of veterinary medicine from Ohio State University in 2012. After working solely as a veterinarian for several years, he recognized that his heart was at home on the farm. In 2018, he started farming part time with hopes of growing the operation to a full time endeavor in the years ahead. He currently works 420 acres with corn, soybeans and cover crops. Keith, his wife, Laura, and their four children live in Winchester Township. 

We would like to also thank Kristy Watters, outgoing president of Adams County Farm Bureau for her countless hours of volunteer time in service and leadership.  Kristy served the board as president for three years, and her ongoing leadership as a trustee will continue to be valued and appreciated for the years to come.

Ohio Farm Bureau Health Benefits Plan
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.

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.

10-year campaign for safer roads
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.
