Williams County has a rich tradition in agriculture; however, members of the agriculture community often go unnoticed or unrecognized. The goal of the Agriculture Hall of Fame is to recognize hardworking members of our agriculture community. After a nine-year hiatus, the Williams County Agriculture Hall of Fame is restarting in the 2024 calendar year.

The purpose of the Williams County Agriculture Hall of Fame is to recognize the outstanding contributions of an individual to the agricultural industry in Williams County. Individuals, spouses, or members of a business may apply for themselves or on behalf of someone else. Applications may also be submitted posthumously.

Nominations may be made by any individual or organization in Ohio by completing a nomination form and returning it to Ohio State University Extension – Williams County Office, Attention: Agriculture Hall of Fame Committee, 1425 East High Street, Suite 112, Bryan, OH 43506 or emailed to wyse.34@osu.edu by July 1st of each year or as designated by the Hall of Fame Committee. All nominations must be submitted on a properly prepared form.  Such forms will be printed and available at the Williams County Office or online at https://www.williams.osu.edu. Nominations of an individual, husband/wife, or member of an ag business or farm must be combined and submitted on one nomination form.

If you have any questions about the Agriculture Hall of Fame, please call The Ohio State University Extension – Williams County Office at 419-636-5608 or email wyse.34@osu.edu.
