Logan County Ag Impact grant

Logan County Farm Bureau is excited to announce that the 2024 Logan County Agriculture Impact Fund grants are now available. The grant program was created from proceeds earned through the Logan Co. Farm Bureau Agriculture Impact Fund Reverse Raffle event held each year. 

The purpose of the Impact Fund is to support projects and events that will expand and grow agriculture’s footprint in the county and encourage youth development in agriculture. Grants will be offered to any organization, classroom or program in Logan County that promotes the well-being and enrichment of youth involved in our county’s agriculture community. The fund’s grant applications are evaluated competitively, and projects awarded MUST be completed by Nov. 30, 2025. Grant projects must be over $500 in order to apply..

We are also excited to announce the expansion of our mini-grant program into the fall. The program is available to organizations, classrooms, or clubs that teach agriculture concepts and are involved in youth development. These grants are capped at $500, and the county will award four projects this cycle. 

Min-Grant and Grant Timeline:

  • All submissions may begin after Oct. 1, 2024.
  • Grant applications will be due Nov. 1, 2024.
  • Mini-grant applications are due Nov. 15, 2024.
  • Upon submission, grants will go through two review committees.
  • All grant recipients will be notified by Dec. 1 regarding their application success.

The goal and hope of our program is to award as many projects as we can to see agriculture’s footprint expand in the county. In the previous seven years of the program, the county was able to award over $65,000 in grant dollars for agriculture projects in our county. 

We hope you will share this opportunity within your organizations and schools so we can have a robust and creative set of applications.

For questions about the application, please direct them to Senior Organization Director Jill Smith, at [email protected] or call the Farm Bureau office at 877-775-7642.

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

Finding farm labor
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.

CAUV: Past, present and future
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.
