On Aug. 9, 114 residents from Delaware, Knox, Marion and Morrow Counties recycled 2,197 (216 tons) agricultural tires at the Morrow County Fairgrounds. Residents paid a small fee
per tire. The event was partially funded by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency and subsidized by DKMM Solid Waste District.
Sponsors of the event were Delaware, Knox, Marion and Morrow County Farm Bureaus, DKMM Solid Waste District, Delaware, Knox, Marion and Morrow Soil and Water Conservation Districts and OSU Extension-Delaware, Knox, Marion and Morrow Counties.
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.
