Two students from Monroe County will each receive a $1,000 scholarship to help with expenses for their upcoming college year, thanks to Monroe County Farm Bureau. From the applications submitted, Korah Anderson of Lewisville and William Swallow of Beallsville where selected as the 2023 scholarship recipients.

Korah Anderson

 

Korah is the daughter of Eric and Darcie Anderson. She is a senior at University of Findlay and currently employed as a student intern at Bliss Veterinary Services in Newcomerstown, OH.  Kora said, “There I am gaining valuable, hands-on experience that will benefit me as I pursue my career as a veterinarian.” After graduation, she hopes to attend vet school to become a large or mixed animal veterinarian, focusing on rural medicine.

William Weston Swallow

 

 

 

William is the son of Jan and Rosalea Swallow. William participated in several clubs along with Show Pros 4-H club. “Every year my 4-H group volunteers our time at the fairgrounds to plant trees and flowers, re-mulch the flower beds, and help clean our fairgrounds up for fair time,”  William said. “My brother, Austin, is my biggest inspiration because he has been a good role model growing up.  He has a good work ethic and a good job. Austin’s always teaching me new things around the farm and in life.”  William will be attending Belmont College.

Monroe County Farm Bureau congratulates these two fine students on their accomplishments and wishes all the best to our area graduates in their future endeavors.

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.

Farm Bureau connections
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.

Giving farmers a voice
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.

Bringing the farm back to life
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.

Farm Bureau involvement
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.

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.
