Today’s the day! It’s #GivingTuesday, a national day of philanthropy, and the Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation is celebrating!

The Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation has always been committed to inspiring innovation and cultivating investment in Ohio’s farm and food community. 

Giving Tuesday

When you give:
  • You provide opportunities for hundreds of students attending colleges and universities, as well as to those who are directly entering the workforce whose career paths will enhance the agricultural industry. This year, the foundation and county Farm Bureaus collectively awarded over $250,000 in scholarships to 265 students statewide.
  • You enable the foundation to award grants to county Farm Bureaus and partner organizations that share our goal of helping young people discover their purpose and passion in agricultural careers.
  • You make it possible for Ohio Farm Bureau to continually offer our signature ag literacy and workforce development programs, such as ExploreAg. This year, more than 100 students gained exposure to careers in agriculture that they may have never had access to without this experience. 

If you already made your gift this fiscal year, we thank you for your generosity. If not, join us! With your help, we can continue to sow seeds of opportunity and harvest the fruits of success.

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.

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

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.
