Why join
Ohio Farm Bureau?Who is
Ohio Farm Bureau?We believe that people have the power to shape the world in which they live. And that when they’re given a place where they can work together, they have the abil-ity to solve their own problems. Ohio Farm Bureau exists so peo-ple can put ideas into action and bring about a better, more secure way of life.
The mission of Ohio Farm Bureau is to forge a partnership between farmers and consumers. This means advocating for Ohio’s farm families on issues that help them in business and in turn provide consumers a wide variety of food choices.
Since 1919, Ohio Farm Bureau has worked to make Ohio a great place to call home—and it doesn’t matter if you’re a farmer who produces food or a customer who purchases it. There’s a place for you in Farm Bureau.
Our members include farmers, gardeners, food and wine enthusiasts, teachers and more.Every county has its own board of trustees and volunteers who determine and lead local initiatives. Ohio Farm Bureau has a state board of trustees whose 26 elected farmer members govern the organization.
