Oregon Farm Bureau is a grassroots, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization representing the depth and breadth of Oregon’s diverse agricultural community. We give a voice to farm and ranch families at the capitol, in the courts, and within regulatory agencies at the local, state and federal levels. Established in 1932, Farm Bureau is Oregon’s largest and most inclusive general agriculture organization. Over 6,600 Farm Bureau member families raise all of Oregon’s 225+ agricultural commodities, from hops to hazelnuts, cattle to caneberries. All farm and ranch sizes — from 10 acres to 10,000 acres — and all farming methods — organic, conventional, biotech, and no-tech — are welcome and invited to join. We believe Oregon’s agriculture community is strongest when we’re united. With less than 1% of Oregonians who are farmers and ranchers today, Farm Bureau gives our members a strong, united, respected voice in the political and regulatory arenas. We help farm and ranch families stay in business and keep doing the work they love. The County Farm Bureau is the foundation for Farm Bureau at the state and national levels. Oregon has 32 organized, active County Farm Bureaus covering all 36 Oregon counties. Each county Farm Bureau has its own board and officers and is a vital link between the organization’s membership, its policy development, and implementation efforts.
