2022 Washington, D.C. Trip
Sept. 13-15, Ohio Farm Bureau took county presidents, vice presidents and several Young Agricultural Professionals members to Washington, D.C. They were able to talk to their congressmen and other elected officials about issues happening not just in their local areas but for the state of Ohio. What a great opportunity! We would like to thank Ryan Mohr for representing Van Wert County!
I'm eternally grateful for the support Ohio Farm Bureau scholarships provided in helping me turn my dreams into reality.
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.
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.
