President Jason Feldner conducted the Noble County Farm Bureau annual meeting of members on Friday, Aug 11 at Floral Hall on the Noble County Fairgrounds in Caldwell. At this meeting the members voted on proposed policies and selected trustees for the Board of Trustees as well as delegates to Ohio Farm Bureau 2024 Annual Meeting.
Dinner was served by Hog Hollow BBQ. Policy issues included timber/eminent domain issues, dog laws, and broadband.
The program also featured presentations of awards to outstanding contributors to the organization and dedicated volunteers from this past year. Several volunteers were recognized as membership workers this year. One hundred percent board attendance awards were presented to Jason Feldner, Gladys Saling, Clair Schockling, and Duane Weisend. Ninety percent board attendance award winner was Don Archer.
Senior Organization Director Betsy Anderson stated, “Farm Bureau depends on volunteers to accomplish our goals and policies. Noble County is very blessed with dedicated people to serve on their Board of Trustees and as membership volunteers.”
Outstanding programs recognized were L & H Tractor Safety Day, Skillathon sponsorship and our member Jr. Fair signs provided with Brick Insurance Group and Noble County Farm Bureau.
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.
