Ashtabula County - Ohio Farm Bureau

Don’t forget to water your plants during the heat

As a general rule of thumb, an inch of rain each week during the summer is needed for most plants.

Learn about farming at the fair

I hope you have plans to go to the fair as well. Continuing to learn is important, no matter your age. So, bring your questions and let’s have a conversation.

Advance agricultural causes with your Farm Bureau

If you’ve ever thought about serving, now is the time. Agriculture needs your voice.

One way to describe summer: Just peachy

Supporting local agriculture is not only about showing up when the harvest is perfect. It is about showing up when the season has been hard.

Your Voice Matters: Get involved with your county Farm Bureau

Serving on your county Farm Bureau board is more than attending meetings or filling a seat. It’s about making sure local agriculture has a voice where decisions are being made.

Celebrate dairy month with ice cream

June is National Dairy Month, and what better way to celebrate than teaching kids about farming while enjoying ice cream!

Ohio Farm Bureau members support maple syrup legislation

Introduced by Rep. Sarah Fowler Arthur (R-Ashtabula) and Rep. David Thomas (R-Jefferson), the bill would add trees cultivated for maple syrup production to Ohio’s statutory definition of agriculture.

Keeping livestock contained

The Ohio Revised Code (Chapter 951) clearly states that it is unlawful to allow livestock to run loose, and the animal’s owner may be liable for any damages.

4-H: Where the learning continues

I hope you include 4-H and the local county fairs in the memories you make this summer!

Trying to stay dry and appreciate the rain

After all, nothing can survive without water.
