Zachary Meyer is the son of Barbara and William Meyer and is receiving a $500 scholarship. He is a 2019 LaBrae High School graduate and is planning to attend The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Zachary has been involved in multiple community food distribution services such as Findlay City Mission and has participated in the planning committee for the Food Animal Medicine Student Symposium. He has worked as a veterinary assistant for Countryside Veterinary Service from 2020-2024 and at Hagyard Equine Medical Institute in 2023. Zachary plans on working as a veterinarian in large animal medicine to assist and collaborate with farmers to maximize their farm’s capabilities.
Carlie Easterday is the daughter of Emily Shoenberger and Jeremie Easterday and the recipient of a $250 scholarship. She is a 2024 graduate of Trumbull Career and Technical Center and plans to attend Kent State University, majoring in sports medicine. Carlie volunteers with the Champion Youth Basketball program, NTHS assisting teachers creates donations, and crochets hand towels for the elderly on her own. Carlie intends to complete her education at Kent State University and continue her education to become a medical doctor practicing orthopedic surgery.
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.
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.
We really appreciate what Farm Bureau has done to get people interested in this line of work and workforce development and getting people interested in this industry.
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.
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.
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.
