The fair is quickly approaching Sept. 3-7, and that means we are busy planning our fair tent. We love sharing the story of agriculture with our community, and we couldn’t do that without all of you. We are once again looking for volunteers to help make our tent memorable for all who visit. Agriculture is vital to all our lives, and it’s so important that we share that with others. Did you know that the majority of Americans are at least 3 generations removed from the farm? It’s so sad that so many people won’t ever experience the life that we all love.
Anyone who volunteers in the tent will receive a T-shirt and a ticket for entry into the fair.
Every shift earns you a ticket toward a chance to win a pair of tickets to the Farm Bureau Annual Meeting & Dinner Sept. 30, 2026.
We would love your help this year in the Farm Bureau Tent at Geauga County Fair!

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.

Check in on each other
Check on your kids. Check on the friend who has been unusually quiet. Check on the farmer who hasn’t been at the coffee shop lately. Check on the person who is always the strong one for everyone else.
And when someone tells you they are struggling, listen.
