Supporting the next generation of leaders is a priority for the Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation. Each year, WyFB invests in the future of agriculture by awarding $5,500 in college scholarships to nine deserving students who are either members themselves or the children of active Farm Bureau members. 

The Livingston-King Scholarship, our highest award at $1,500, honors the legacy of former WyFB Presidents Herbert D. Livingston and H.J. King, along with Buddy and Norma Livingston, parents of former President Perry Livingston. Their contributions to agriculture and Farm Bureau leadership continue to inspire the next generation.  

In addition to the Livingston-King award, five Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation Scholarships and three Continuing Education Scholarships are awarded at $500 each. The Continuing Education Scholarships are designated for students entering their sophomore, junior, senior, or graduate year of college.  

As part of the application process, students were asked to answer the question: “What career path do you plan to take with your chosen course of study, and how will it affect rural America?” Excerpts from their responses are included in the individual profiles that follow. 

The future of rural communities and agriculture depends on dedicated, informed young people. WyFB is proud to support these promising individuals as they pursue their goals and give back to the communities  they call home.
