Happy National Farmer’s Day!
Today, we’re celebrating the farmers and ranchers who work year-round to grow our food, care for our land and livestock, and keep Oregon agriculture thriving.
From the fields and orchards to the pastures and dairies, agriculture takes dedication, hard work, and a whole lot of heart.
At Oregon Aglink, we’re proud to connect our communities with the people behind their food and the industry that helps feed and sustain us all.
Today and every day, thank a farmer!

Throwback Thursday: Aglink Archives
As we celebrate Oregon Aglink's 60th anniversary, we're taking a trip through history to revisit the people, programs, and partnerships that have helped strengthen Oregon agriculture for generations.
This week, we're looking back at Rooted. Green. Vital. A campaign that reminded Oregonians of the essential role agriculture plays in our everyday lives, it was
launched to strengthen the connection between consumers and agriculture. Rooted. Green. Vital. celebrated the people, products, and landscapes that make Oregon agriculture unique. The campaign highlighted a simple but powerful message: agriculture is deeply rooted in our communities, keeps our state green and thriving, and is vital to Oregon's economy, environment, and quality of life. It reflected Oregon Aglink's long-standing mission of bridging the gap between rural and urban Oregonians through education and promotion.
While campaigns and logos may evolve over the years, the mission remains the same: connecting Oregonians to the farmers, ranchers, and agricultural businesses that provide the food, fiber, and natural resources we depend on every day.

Here's to the campaigns that have helped tell agriculture's story and to the people who continue sharing it today.

Throwback Thursday: Aglink Archives
As we celebrate Oregon Aglink's 60th anniversary, we're taking a trip through history to revisit the people, programs, and partnerships that have helped strengthen Oregon agriculture for generations.
This week, we're celebrating one of Oregon Aglink's longest-running public education efforts: Crop Identification Signs.
The story began in 1974, when Pat C**n and the Linn-Benton Women for Agriculture hand-painted the first signs along Peoria Road between Corvallis and Albany to help travelers identify the crops growing in Oregon's fields. As interest grew, Oregon Aglink partnered with the program in 1983, helping expand it into the statewide educational initiative we know today.
Today, those familiar green-and-white signs can be found across Oregon, helping answer one simple question: "What's growing in that field?" From grass seed and hazelnuts to cattle, berries, and peppermint, the signs connect thousands of travelers each year with the incredible diversity of Oregon agriculture.
What started as a handful of hand-painted signs has become a lasting symbol of Oregon agriculture, and a reminder that education can begin right from the roadside.

As we celebrate Oregon Aglink's 60th anniversary, we're taking a trip through history to revisit the people, programs, and partnerships that have helped strengthen Oregon agriculture for generations.

This week, we're looking back at the very first year of Adopt a Farmer. What began during the 2011–2012 school year with just three middle schools and approximately 400 students has grown into one of Oregon Aglink's signature educational programs. The vision was simple but powerful: connect students with real Oregon farmers and ranchers for an entire school year, giving them firsthand experiences that bring agriculture to life.

From those first classroom visits and farm tours, Adopt a Farmer has grown to reach thousands of students across Oregon each year. Along the way, dedicated farmers, teachers, volunteers, and sponsors have helped inspire curiosity, build relationships, and bridge the gap between agriculture and the next generation.

Here's to the program that started with three classrooms, and continues to cultivate understanding of Oregon agriculture one student at a time.

September 21-25 is National Farm Safety Week

But, farm safety isn’t just about one week a year. It’s about making sure everyone goes home safely at the end of every day.

This National Farm Safety Week, take a few minutes to look at the safety practices on your operation. Are employees trained? Are safety records up to date? Are heat and smoke conditions being monitored? Are near misses being reported and used as opportunities to learn?

These are the everyday details that can make a difference.

That’s one reason Oregon Aglink is excited to offer our members OASIS, a mobile safety tool. Because good safety practices protect more than a business, they protect the people who make our farms and ranches possible.

Take a look at your safety program this week. Identify one thing you can improve, and make it happen.
