The Ross County Farm Bureau Board of Trustees invites you to attend our Policy Development Breakfast at 8 a.m. on Thursday, June 26, 2025, in the first floor conference room of the Carlisle Building, 9 S. Paint Street, Chillicothe, Ohio 45601.
This meeting’s purpose is to share Farm Bureau’s current policies on issues important to Ross County and to allow you to provide us with information on issues you believe Farm Bureau should address. Your input is what we need. This policy process provides us with the information we need to develop our plan of work for the year. We will be having conversations on county, state, and federal issues.
There will be some breakfast items available upon your arrival. There is no charge for the breakfast, however, donations are appreciated.
If you wish to attend, please contact the county Farm Bureau office at 740-474-6284. Attached is a policy submission form. If you have a policy proposal, please submit your proposed policies or bring them with you to the meeting. If you can’t attend, but still wish to submit a proposed policy, please mail it to the county Farm Bureau office, 24633 US Hwy 23 S, Circleville, Ohio 43113.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you.

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.
