Ohio Master Farmers serve as conservation leaders

Two Ohio growers have been honored as Master Farmers for their conservation and community efforts. 

Third-generation farmer Tim Norris of Gambier raises about 800 acres of corn, wheat, soybeans, and sunflowers and custom farms. After four bad years in the ‘80s, Norris stepped off the farm and rebuilt his way back after a career starting two ag tech businesses. 

“I learned a lot of things to do from my parents, and I learned one thing not to do from my dad and that was to not make the farm the only thing in your life,” he says.
