Nebraska Farm Bureau recently hosted its annual Young Farmers & Ranchers (YF&R) Conference in Kearney. The YF&R program is composed of men and women ages 18-35 who are Farm Bureau members and looking to develop their leadership skills while also meeting and networking with their peers. As part of the annual conference event, the planning committee hosts a cornhole tournament and pays forward the proceeds to a deserving project that aligns with their mission. The Nebraska AgrAbility program was designated as their 2022 project recipient and the proceeds were matched 1:1 by Nebraska Farm Bureau. Nebraska AgrAbility had the opportunity to share a video and feature a personal testimony from an AgrAbility client who is also a Farm Bureau member. The Nebraska Farm Bureau Federation is a grassroots statewide organization dedicated to supporting farm and ranch families and working for the benefit of all Nebraskans. More than 55,000 families across Nebraska are Farm Bureau members.
