Ohio Department of Agriculture

But when you start looking at Cincinnati, they also, and I should say that the four rides were inspected.

The Ohio Department of Agriculture actually has a division that looks at fairs and roller coasters and licenses and inspects them.

All four at Cedar Point were inspected in 2026.

When we start looking at Kings Island, they have three of these B&M roller coasters, Diamondback, Orion, and Banshee.

It's all about a cascading grassed waterway that was installed and the connection to our co-host, Alan Davis.

We want to thank the Nature Conservancy, the Allen County Soil and Water Conservation District, and the Ohio Department of Agriculture.

We have that feature story and more this week in Ohio Country Today.

And this is part of that, being able to not only experience where your food comes from, but the families that are behind it, right?

Absolutely, and that's That is such a huge part of it is the families behind it.

about those? Sure.

And one of them, one I saw, you know, great partnership as far as agency in the state between development and Ohio Department of Agriculture.

But one of the things was our international trade and marketing division was at development, which great work that was going on over there.

But they were kind of pulled in many different directions.
