✨ Looking Ahead: The annual meeting continues to be a cornerstone event for Ohio Farm Bureau, ensuring that members’ voices are heard and that grassroots policy drives the organization forward.
We are proud of the dedication and leadership shown by our Jackson‑Vinton County representatives and congratulate all who contributed to this year’s success!
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.
