Women in Ag Event

Sept. 15 we hosted the 7th Annual Shelby County Women in Agriculture event. Participants enjoyed time mingling and tasty food followed by hearing from great speakers! Thank you to Chasitie Euler with BASF, our keynote speaker, who talked to us about balance in our lives. Then we had Evin Bachelor from Wright & Moore Law, who is spoke on succession planning. The final speaker of the night, Julie Cassiano from Meal Prep Life in Sidney, helped us with tips for making meals easier and told her great life journey.

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.

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.
