This award is given annually to recipients who were nominated by county, regional or state Extension staff for their outstanding service to Ohio State University Extension.

The Overholser Family is being recognized for supporting and actively participating in local on-farm research. On-farm research is key in improving best management practices for our local producers and Ohio’s farmers at large. Their past and continuous contribution enhances corn and soybean production in both yield and economic efficiency. The Overholser’s have also been supportive of local educational programming like field days, winter meetings, and other extension services. We truly appreciate their participation and ingenuity.
