WOOD COUNTY – Members of the Wood County Farm Bureau will hold their annual meeting on Sept. 6, at Richfield Town Hall, Marshfield, with registration at 7 p.m. and the meal at 7:30 p.m.

All Farm Bureau members are encouraged to attend the meeting to help create policy resolutions and vote in elections for county board directors. County voting delegates will also be selected for the WFBF Annual Meeting in Wisconsin Dells, Dec. 7-9.

As a grassroots organization, it is Farm Bureau’s members on the county level who set the policy goals of the state’s leading farm organization. The Farm Bureau is often asked to get involved in issues affecting production agriculture and rural communities in Madison and Washington, D.C.

Made up of 61 county Farm Bureaus, the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation is the state’s largest general farm organization representing farms of every size, commodity, and management style.
