This one-day training will equip volunteers with the skills and resources to effectively engage with youth about ag literacy topics. Participants will gain hands-on experience with resources available through the American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture and National Ag in the Classroom Organization, idea share with members across the state, and learn from subject matter experts about effective youth engagement.
Any Ohio Farm Bureau member who has a desire to engage with youth about agriculture education is welcome to attend. Whether you help your county Farm Bureau regularly with ag literacy programming or are interested to learn more about how you could start engaging in ag literacy efforts, this is the training for you!
Space is limited to the first 25 Ohio Farm Bureau members registered. Note: This training is not intended for previous participants.
The event is free and lunch is included.
Registration is due Feb. 2 or until all spots are filled.
Ohio Farm Bureau’s agricultural literacy program is made possible through the Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation and the generosity of the Patterson family. Bruce, Carlene and CarlVon Patterson established The Patterson Family Ag Literacy Fund in 2023 to provide programmatic support in perpetuity for Ohio Farm Bureau’s agricultural literacy initiatives.
The next Ohio Farm Bureau County Volunteer Ag Literacy Certification Training is set to be held tentatively on Friday, Aug. 15, 2025 in northwest, Ohio.
