Aug. 30 through Sept. 5 was the 166th Van Wert County Fair. The Van Wert County Farm Bureau Food Stand was fully open again this year with all the fair food favorites including our famous milkshakes. New this year we had weekend specials available until gone including Saturday- Ribeye Sandwich, Sunday- Pork Loin Sandwich, and Monday- Ham and Cheese Sandwich and they were a big hit! Then Sept. 3 and 4, after some rain delays, we held our annual Kids Dream Days. Located at the track, this event was free event for Farm Bureau members and for non-Farm Bureau members the cost was $5 for an individual or $10 for a family. Open to everyone of all ages, participants got to ride in tractors or help dig in a mini excavator. There were also giveaway items after each person participated. See you next year for the 167th Van Wert Co. Fair Aug. 29-Sept. 4!
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.
To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.
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.
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
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.
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.
