Scioto County Farm Bureau had the privilege of joining students from East Portsmouth Elementary for an engaging field trip to Fuhrmann Orchards.
This outing marked a special full-circle milestone following the “What’s all the Buzz About” teacher curriculum training hosted last February. During their time at the orchard, students stepped outside the classroom to explore real-world agriculture, getting hands-on lessons on the vital importance of honeybees, pollination, and how ecosystems support local farming.
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Fuhrmann Orchards for opening their farm and making this day both educational and memorable for the students and staff!
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.
