Each year the Central Ohio Farm Bureaus look forward to honoring a Women in Ag recipient. Choosing worthy recipients from among the many so qualified is difficult, and yet we do not want to overlook any possibilities.
Recipients are chosen by the Women in Ag Committee. In finding worthy candidates, it is helpful to the committee to receive recommendations from the County Farm Bureaus. Traditionally the award is given to a woman who has made an outstanding contribution to her local community and the industry of agriculture.
There are no application forms or specific guidelines for recommendations. All that is requested is a letter giving as much detail of the person’s background and accomplishments as you can.
Please forward recommendations to Melinda Lee ([email protected]) by Friday, Jan. 27, 2023.
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.
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
We really appreciate what Farm Bureau has done to get people interested in this line of work and workforce development and getting people interested in this industry.
We work terrifically with the Ashtabula County Farm Bureau, hosting at least one to two outreach town hall events every year to educate new farmers and existing farmers on traditional CAUV and woodlands.
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.
