Pickaway County Farm Bureau is excited to announce a new safety program coming this spring. Farm Bureau, in conjunction with the Ohio Firefighters and OSU will offer training to all county fire departments on the proper use of the Grain Bin Rescue Tube. This training will take place April 5 & 6, 2023 in Heritage Hall on the Pickaway County Fairgrounds and Event Center.
Also, any Farm Bureau member who is part of the Workers’ Compensation Group rating program will be able to attend this training as part of the qualifications to continue to be a part of the group. This training will take place on April 5, 2023. Be watching for details to be sent soon.
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.
