Athens-Meigs County Farm Bureau met with the Meigs County Commissioners on March 20, 2025 to proclaim National Ag Week.
American agriculture is the foundation of our country. It’s the backbone of a healthy and prosperous nation, made possible by the hard work of America’s farms and farm families. Each year in March, we have the opportunity to meet with the commissioners to talk about agriculture and to declare National Ag week. This year, National Ag week was March 16-22. Along with proclaiming National Ag week, we also have the opportunity to give baskets of local agriculture products to the commissioners. We appreciate the continued support of agriculture from the Meigs County Commissioners.
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.
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
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.
