2023 Crawford Farmers Share Breakfast

Crawford 2023 Farmers Share BreakfastCrawford County Farm Bureau celebrated agriculture, local farmers and its rural community Feb. 18, with the return of its Farmers Share Breakfast at Hannah Crawford Elementary.

More than 325 people enjoyed breakfast and table-top discussion. This event provided an opportunity for the community to come together and talk to local farmers and learn how farmers care about their community. There was a lot of community engagement and discussion, which made for a great morning.

Agriculture provides almost everything we eat, use and wear on a daily basis, but many people don’t think about that. Crawford County Farm Bureau hopes every American will:

  • Recognize the contribution of agriculture in our everyday lives.
  • Understand how food and fiber products are produced.
  • Appreciate the role agriculture plays in providing safe, abundant and affordable products.
  • Value the essential role of agriculture in maintaining a strong economy.
  • Acknowledge and consider career opportunities in the agriculture, food and fiber industry.

Farm Labor Resources
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.

Strong communities
I appreciate the benefit of having a strong voice in my corner. The extras that are included in membership are wonderful, but I'm a member because of the positive impact to my local and state agricultural communities.

Leadership development
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.

Young Ag Professionals program
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.

Growing our Generation
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.

Groovy Plants Ranch
Knowing that horticulture is under the agriculture umbrella and having Farm Bureau supporting horticulture like it does the rest of ag is very important.

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.

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.
