Read MoreThe 2024 Muskingum County Farm Bureau and Boyer Insurance scholarship winners are Avery Vasko and Mason Prouty. As part of the scholarship, Mason and Avery participated in a two-day adventure across parts of Muskingum County visiting different ag businesses.
On the first day, students visited McNutt Farm and watched their collies work sheep and cattle. Also on day one, students went to the German Farm Market and learned how it all started. The last two stops on day one were Windy Ridge Jerseys Dairy and McDonald’s Green House and Corn Maze.
On day two, Mason and Avery visited Boyer Insurance and learned about the agriculture of insurance. They also spoke with representatives from OSU Extension, Soil & Water Conservation District, and Natural Resource Conservation Service. In the afternoon the scholarship winners visited LinJus Farm and learned about their feedlot operation as well as their plans to have a mobile farm stand that should increase their direct-to-consumer sales. The last stop of the experience was Curly Girl Farm. Curly Girl Farm is a produce operation that also sells cut flowers and hosts you-pick flower events.
Avery and Mason shared their experience with the County Board of Trustees and received their scholarship at the June board meeting.
