Month: May 2024

We hope you will join us on Main Street in Coshocton for First FARM Friday on August 2. The goal of First FARM Friday is to educate the public about the importance of agriculture in our community and beyond. Visit one of our many displays, climb into farm machinery, and get up close to farm animals. Bring the kids to complete a stamp card and receive a free cup of custard from Whit’s Frozen Custard. Food will be available for purchase from vendors at the event.

Do you have a question for a local farmer? At First FARM Friday, you can talk to the men and women of Coshocton County agriculture. All of the presenters at the event volunteer their time to educate the community about Coshocton County’s number one industry. First FARM Friday was organized to be a fun, educational event that helps the general public understand the importance of agriculture in our community and beyond.

There are two Pasture Walks planned for 2024. The first is on Tuesday, June 25 at 6:30 p.m. at the Rick Haines farm and the second is Tuesday, August 27 at 6:30 p.m. at the Travis Hahn farm.

The address for the June Pasture Walk is 29392 County Road 22, Warsaw, OH 43844 and it will feature beef cattle management. The August Pasture Walk address is 23794 County Road 93, Fresno, OH 43824. This date will highlight goat production. There will be signs posted to help you find the farm for both events.

We hope you will join us for these events where you will hear directly from the landowners about their operations and get ideas to use on your farm.  Reservations are not required. If you would like more information or to receive a postcard for pasture walks please call us at (740)622-8087 x 4 or email zachwallace@coshoctoncounty.net.
