Last Wednesday, the District held its 2026 Annual meeting at the K of C Hall in Marietta. The room was filled with warmth and laughter! The event kicked off with Warren FFA helping serve the wonderful meal prepared. Our guest speaker, Melinda Witten with Ohio Agribusiness Association CEO, spoke on application spray regulations and property tax removal cause and effect. The District recognized some community members for their support of the District, Community and Conservation.
👨🏻🏫 Friend of Conservation was awarded to Derrick McNabb for helping plant the seed of knowledge with the Fort Frye Local School District 4th graders earlier this year gifting them a tree seedling and visit talking about trees.
👩🏻🌾 Hidden Hills Orchard, Stacy Family Farms and Wildroot Flower Co for hosting the Fall Harvest Trail in September promoting our community agricultural and supporting locally.
🌸 Cooperator of the Year was awarded to Wildroot Flower Co. Wildroot Flower Co has worked through the NRCS Office along with the Soil & Water Office in constructing high tunnels. Through Lyndsay’s work she has offered to our community the only u-pick flower farm in our County. During flower season, her flowers can be found at our local farmers market, in her flower stand or in the fields during the u-pick events providing fresh and beautiful flowers for every occasion.
🗳 The evening ended with the announcement of the election results. Jeff Jones will serve the next 3 years on our Board of Supervisors.
The District would like to thank everyone who attend the meeting as it wouldn’t be possible without our community involvement and support.
