2024 Morrow County Annual Meeting

Morrow County Farm Bureau held its Annual Meeting July 11, 2024 at the Gilead Friends Church in Mount Gilead. Dinner was prepared by the Morrow County Pork Producers. After dinner, presenters spoke about Morrow County’s Land Use Revitalization Plan and gathered input from attendees.

The 2023 Morrow County Farm Bureau Annual Meeting minutes and financials were presented and approved. Trustee and delegate elections were held and policies were voted on and approved. The board trustees elected were Manny Heilman and Madison Ott. Along with County President Seth Romine and Vice President Manny Heilman, Julie Logan and Madison Ott were voted to serve as delegates for the 2025 OFBF Annual Meeting.

Warren Davis was awarded the President’s Award for his leadership and service to  Morrow County Farm Bureau. Volunteers were recognized, and programs and accomplishments from the last year were reviewed and celebrated. Organization Director Abra Dunn and OFBF First Vice President and District 7 State Trustee Cy Prettyman provided remarks.

Thank you to all of our members and guests who attended. If you couldn’t attend and would still like to get involved, we are always looking for volunteers throughout the year for different events and committees.

My first recommendation in your journey is to start out with a local farming friend or mentor along with joining an organization like Ohio Farm Bureau.

We’re just so thankful for the Farm Bureau and the foundation for helping put this together. And of course, the Boyert family for the vision they had with this grant. It’s jumping us forward 10 years. It’s unbelievable.

It wasn’t until I joined the Wilmington College Collegiate Farm Bureau that I truly saw how my passion could translate into leadership, advocacy and a career.

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
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.
