Founded in 1919, Ohio Farm Bureau is a grassroots membership organization that works to support Ohio agriculture and the state’s food and farm community.

Today, it doesn't matter if you grow food or purchase it, Ohio Farm Bureau invites you to work with your neighbors to enhance the quality of life in your community and celebrate the unique ways agriculture touches our lives. Mission: Working together for Ohio farmers to advance agriculture and strengthen our communities.
