Gallia County Farm Bureau hosted the 23rd Annual Gallia County Ag Day at the Gallia County Fairgrounds May 6, 2026.
Each year we host Gallia County 4th grade students at the fairgrounds to teach them all about different types of agriculture. There were 328 students who rotated through 15 different stations throughout the day. Along with learning about agriculture, they also participated in a T-shirt design contest. The students were asked to draw what agriculture means to them. This year’s T-shirt contest winner was Molly W. from Washington Elementary! Each student was able to take home a free T-shirt with the winning design and sponsors on it along with a brochure about what Farm Bureau is, the events they were able to participate in for the day, and all of the various sponsors.
We could not host this wonderful event each year if it was not for the Gallia County Fair Board for allowing us to use the grounds, our wonderful sponsors who believe in what we are doing, and our fantastic presenters that make the day a success!

The mission of the Ohio Farm Bureau is working together for Ohio farmers to advance agriculture and strengthen our communities.
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.
