2022 Cuyahoga annual meeting

The 2022 Cuyahoga County annual meeting was held at the Perk Cup Cafe & Grill with 40 members in attendance. The annual meeting was a chance to reflect on our 2022 accomplishments, recognize our special award recipients, celebrate our members and volunteers and set the course for Cuyahoga County Farm Bureau for 2023.

Members were asked to review the candidates’ information for the board of trustees and OFBF annual meeting delegates for 2023. They also reviewed the slate of policies for the county, state and national levels. George Vasiloff, Fred Holzman, Kim Roslan, Jolene Workman, Debbi Klun and Jen Skoczen were re-elected to the county board of trustees and all policies passed.

Kathy King was chosen by the county trustees as the 2022 Member of Distinction! Kathy has been a past Membership Coordinator and is highly involved in the Used Tack Sale and is a “great” board member!

The annual meeting was a perfect example of our members working together for Ohio farmers as we continue to advance agriculture and strengthen our communities.

I see the value and need to be engaged in the community I live in, to be a part of the decision-making process and to volunteer with organizations that help make our community better.

Growing our Generation
With not growing up on a farm, I’d say I was a late bloomer to agriculture. I feel so fortunate that I found the agriculture industry. There are so many opportunities for growth.

Labor has always been an issue, mainly because we are a seasonal operation. So that's a challenge finding somebody who only wants to work three months out of a year, sometimes up to six months.

Farm Bureau involvement has taught me how to grow my professional and leadership experience outside of the workforce and how to do that in a community-centric way.

If it wasn't for Farm Bureau, I personally, along with many others, would not have had the opportunity to meet with our representatives face to face in Washington.

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.
