Re: Farm Bureau

Farm land preservation, of course!  Farm Bureau is also against rails to trails.

Am I the only person who has problem with partners with the Farm Bureau to save prairies. I they have yet to see the group show an interest in preserving natural areas. Below is another example of the their true feeling.

This is a request for help and a little activism. USFWS has proposed a 40,000
acre Wildlife Refuge in central Ohio. The is at the eastern edge of the prairie
peninsula. The refuge is aimed at protecting Little Darby Creek home to a number
of state and federally threatened fish and mullosks as well as the
restoration/protection of thousands of acres of prairie. Also included is the
placement of easements on farm land to maintain farm land and prevent
development. All land acquisition will be voluntary, no imminent domain.
Substantial opposition to the refuge is coming from the Farm Bureau and local
farmers. I honestly can't understand their arguments but none the less they are
