Lisa Jones has been a longtime supporter of Madison County 4-H, but her passion for the youth program began in Woodward, Iowa, as a youth. Growing up, she was a member of Boone County 4-H, where she focused on sheep and equine projects.
Lisa was the Ohio Future Feeders club leader for nine years and was involved in the Youth and 4-H Committee. She now devotes her time to giving back to the community by serving as an elected official for the Madison County Extension Council and a Madison County Fair Board member.
Lisa and Craig Jones own a commercial cow/calf operation and raise Boer goats, emphasizing market traits to sell to youth wishing to be competitive at their county fairs. She has continuously given back to the goat project in Madison County as the assistant superintendent and hopes to see every single exhibitor succeed.
Lisa has been extremely passionate about raising funds for members of Madison County 4-H. She has devoted many hours to the Madison County Fair premium auction which has grossed an annual amount of $132,665 that has been paid out to local youth for their market livestock projects.
