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.

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.

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.
