Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To represent Suwannee county agriculture and work for the betterment of the agriculture industry.

  • SCFB partnered with UF/IFAS Research Center for Community Day. This program's purpose was to educate the non farming community on the importance of agriculture in Suwannee County. Participants had the opportunity to learn about a variety of plants from blueberries to chestnuts and citrus, visit a progressive greenhouse and learn about water and fertilizer management.

  • Students attended Youth Ag Day in Branford. The purpose of this event is to expand our local youth's awareness and understanding of Florida agriculture and natural resources. Students from pre K through third grade were exposed to Florida's agriculture and taught about its impact to our everyday life as they rotated through different booths.

  • Farm City Week is a national event that brings together the urban and ag community to forge a bond between city and agriculture through education. Suwannee County Farm Bureau held an essay contest that is designed to promote the value of agriculture in the community. Agriculture is constantly misunderstood and improvements can be made by understanding issues. Students were asked to write an essay on Why is agriculture important to our community, state, and nation? The contest gives students an opportunity to research agriculture the issues faced by farmers and ranchers. They learn to appreciate where their food comes from.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Not present in the most recent drop.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
