The Marion County Farm Bureau is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2025 Marion County Farm Bureau James H. Johnson Scholarship.
Kari Carter, the daughter of Scott and Nancy Carter, graduated from River Valley High School and attends Wilmington College pursuing a degree in ag business. She is active in the Ag Communicators of Tomorrow, Aggies and Gamma Beta Eta Lil Sis Sorority on campus. Carter hopes to impact her community by helping farmers make responsible financial decisions to improve their farms.
Abigail Isler, the daughter of Steve and Katie Isler, graduated from River Valley High School and attends The Ohio State University. While pursuing a degree in ag communications, she is involved in Saddle and Sirloin and Sigma Alpha Professional Sorority. Upon arriving in Columbus, Isler learned that many people don’t know the origin of their food. She hopes to write the stories of farmers and ranchers and become an advocate for the industry.
Sidney Street, the daughter of Tim and Amanda Street, is a senior at River Valley High School and plans to attend Oklahoma State University to pursue a degree in ag communications with a minor in public policy. She wants to gain the tools needed to be a successful lobbyist and advocate for agriculture. Through her years in 4-H and FFA, she has observed many changes that emphasized a significant need to protect farmland and the livelihoods of farmers like her family members from the pressures of development.
A maximum of three $500 scholarships were available to support the further education of Marion County High School graduates. Congratulations to the recipients; the Marion County Farm Bureau wishes you the best of luck this fall!
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.
