2024 County Farm Bureau Activities of Excellence winners, at AFBF Convention
Clinton County CAE award
2023 OFBF Annual Meeting

Clinton County Farm Bureau was recognized as one of the 24 Farm Bureau counties in the nation to win the County Activities of Excellence Award from American Farm Bureau. The county’s Piggies, Pie, Play Ball, and Putt-Putt program was created to help at-risk youth learn responsibility, ownership, and leadership skills.

Each year, the county raises a hog for the county fair. With funds made by a pie auction during the county’s annual meeting and a putt-putt golf outing, the Farm Bureau members serve as mentors to at least one at-risk youth to raise a hog for the fair. After the fair, the youth are then treated to a baseball game.

Clinton County Farm Bureau was recognized at the Ohio Farm Bureau Annual Meeting. They were even given the opportunity to travel to Salt Lake City for the American Farm Bureau Federation Convention in January. Members are pictured with AFBF President Zippy Duvall

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.

Giving farmers a voice
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.

Bringing the farm back to life
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.
