Crawford County Farm Bureau has established a fund to support and further the education of Crawford County High School graduates. Up to two scholarships of $500 will be awarded annually.

Applicants may be high school seniors, current college or graduate school, apprenticeship program or trade school students and must be residents of Crawford County. An applicant must be a member, or child or dependent of a member, of the Crawford County (Ohio) Farm Bureau.

Applications are being accepted online only. Students will need to upload their most transcripts and a letter of reference at the end of the application, so please be sure to have those documents before starting the application. Applications are due by March 31, 2024.

Scholarship monies will be paid directly to the recipient to be used for school, books and living expenses following the next semester, or equivalent. Transcripts must show that the recipient maintains a 2.5 GPA in their semester or equivalent term.

Recipients will receive the funds after submission of their respective transcript detailing their grades for the first semester, or equivalent, for the academic year AND proof that the student is enrolled as a full-time student for the next grading period.

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.

Giving farmers a voice
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.

Finding farm labor
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.

Strong communities
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.

CAUV: Past, present and future
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.

Farm Bureau involvement
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.

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.
