Jefferson County Agri-Business Club

The Jefferson County Agri-Business Club is a community organization dedicated to promoting agriculture and agribusiness among local and state residents. Its mission is to strengthen interest in the agricultural community and serve as a resource for its future. The club supports this work through educational outreach, media, visits to local agribusinesses, and fundraising activities that showcase agricultural products.

A key program is its annual scholarship initiative, which assists Jefferson County residents and high school and college students pursuing careers in agriculture. The club also awards grants, with funds raised in previous years through cheese sales and a food booth at the Jefferson County Fair helping make this support possible. In addition, it provides funding to other organizations that promote agriculture.

The club welcomes community involvement and offers opportunities to participate in its programs and fundraising efforts. Its website provides information about scholarships, grants, membership, committees, and a fourth-grade farm tour.
