In 2022, Muskingum County Farm Bureau started the process of making improvements to their displays and activities in the Three Gables Building at the Muskingum County Fair. Titling this project “Building for the Future of Agriculture,” the county received several grants to fund new displays, activities, and an intern. The improvements were a huge success!
Following their success, the county Farm Bureau re-applied and were awarded the Work Force Development and Ag Literacy Grant through the Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation for the 2024 program year. These funds will allow the county Farm Bureau to continue this project and add a set of virtual reality headsets with immersive programs.
It takes one experience to spark a child’s interest in a topic. Muskingum County Farm Bureau hopes that these outreach efforts will increase young people’s interest in agriculture. It is important to show our young people the many opportunities in agriculture.
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.
To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.
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.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
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.
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.
