Celebrate National Ag Week

To commemorate National Agriculture Week, March 17th-23rd, 2024 the Farmers and Ranchers of Marion County Farm Bureau made  donations to the Food Banks in Marion County.

 

It is estimated that one out of four families in our state is currently experiencing food hardship, meaning they can’t always afford the food they need.  Working families are the most frequent users of food assistance programs.  At times, even two incomes are not enough to pay all the bills. Families and individuals often must choose between paying for food or paying for other necessities such as utilities and medical care.

 

We recognize that a food bank is a huge need in our community, county and across the state.  We would like to thank them for making a positive impact in alleviating hunger.

Scholarships

We are once again offering 2 -$500.00 Scholarships to 2024 high school graduating Seniors.  Their parents must be members of Marion County Farm Bureau in good standing.  An Ag related field of study is not a requirement, but will be the focus of the judging committee along with GPA.  Completed applications with all requested information are due April 19th, 2024.  APPLICATION
