2024 Adams County Farm Bureau Scholarships

Adams County Farm Bureau is offering two $500 scholarships to 2024 graduating high school seniors who are the children/dependents of Adams County Farm Bureau members. Additionally, a $500 scholarship will also be awarded to a student currently enrolled in a two or four year college or technical school with a major in agriculture.

It is not necessary that the applicant have a farm background or plan to major in agriculture. As long as the parents/guardians of the student are members of the Adams County Farm Bureau, the student is eligible.

Evaluation of the applicants will be based on academic achievement, school and community activities, and a very short essay regarding the importance of agriculture to Adams County and the state of Ohio.

Applications are available online and can be obtained through local high schools’ guidance counselors’ offices. To obtain a scholarship, applicants must send a completed application, a copy of their high school transcript and a wallet-size photo to the Adams County Farm Bureau, PO Box 288, Georgetown, OH 45121. All applications must be received by 4 p.m. on March 31, 2024.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call the Adams County Farm Bureau office at 937-378-2212. Office hours are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Thursday.

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.

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.
