Congratulations to the scholarship winner for Gallia County Farm Bureau. The student received $1,000 to the college of her choice for the 2025-2026 school year.
This year’s recipient of the Gallia County Farm Bureau Scholarship is Kaylee Ruiz. Ruiz is a 2025 graduate of South Gallia High School where she was involved in South Gallia FFA and the local 4-H program. She is planning on attending Hocking College this fall where she will be majoring in fire and emergency medical services. Good luck to Kaylee in all of her future endeavors!
Gallia County Farm Bureau awards scholarships annually to students pursuing further education in agriculture. Scholarship applications open in January each year.

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.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
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.
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.
