Scholarships

Putnam County Farm Bureau will award scholarships for the college year 2024. The scholarship award recipients will be recognized at the Putnam County 2024 Farm Bureau Annual Meeting and will receive a scholarship check after grades are submitted from their fall quarter/semester in school.

Putnam County Farm Bureau will select recipients from the applications that meet the mandatory criteria. A scholarship selection committee, appointed by the Putnam County Farm Bureau Board of Trustees, will evaluate the scholarship applications and present their recommendations for the awards to the board for approval. From the applications, the committee will evaluate each candidate’s academic performance, agriculture and Farm Bureau involvement and activities.

The purpose of the scholarship program is:

  • To financially assist and reward a college-bound high school senior and/or college enrolled student who intends to further their education.
  • To recognize the present and future scholastic ability of young adults.
  • To invest in the post-secondary education and career planning of young adults.
  • To select recipients based upon merit, abilities and accomplishments.

If you need additional information, or have any questions/concerns, please contact the Putnam County Farm Bureau office at 877-775-7642. Office hours are Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 4 p.m.

The complete scholarship application should be submitted online no later than March 31, 2024.

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

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.

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.
