Raffle tickets were $25 each with all proceeds supporting each county’s impact funds to support programming and events that will expand and grow agriculture’s footprint in the county and encourage youth development in agriculture.
All 1,000 tickets were sold through Aug. 31, 2023.
Winners are drawn every Friday in September using the Ohio Pick 3 evening draw, with a special Labor Day draw using the Ohio Pick 3 Evening Draw.
Congratulations to our winners and a special thank you to each and every one of you who sold and purchased raffle tickets,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
