2023 Franklin County Fair

The Franklin County Farm Bureau shows their support to the Franklin County Fair in a multitude of ways. From passing out T-shirts, to supporting the youth in the Creative Baking Auction, to Farm Bureau Ag Day at the Fair, our board members and volunteers stayed busy. 

We presented T-shirts to those who participated in the livestock promotion contest which ended up being a big success with over 100 posters! Farm Bureau showed its support in the Creative Baking Auction by bidding on baked goods made by the youth!

Franklin County Farm Bureau participated in the round bale decorating contest and won 1st place, decorated by Organization Director Melinda Lee, with our bale decorated as a combine harvesting corn.

During Farm Bureau Ag Day at the Fair, there were lots of activities for the youth to participate in. Some of these events included County Olympics, an ice cream social, butter making, beekeeping demonstrations, antique tractor display, and much more!

Franklin County FairFarm Bureau also sponsored the hog jackpot show and passed out fans to keep the fair goers cool on the hot day.

The Franklin County Fair was a success and the Franklin County Farm Bureau is proud to give back to the youth in our community.

Giving farmers a voice
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.

Ohio Farm Bureau Health Benefits Plan
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.

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.

CAUV: Past, present and future
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.

Farm Bureau involvement
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.

Select Partner Program
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.

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.
