The Benef its of Membership

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Farm Bureau is the “Voice of Agriculture” and an advocate for farmers and landowners at the local, state, and national level. Your membership ensures that Farm Bureau is able to carry out its mission of representing the producers of food, fiber, and shelter. You are also investing in a safe, abundant, and affordable food supply, protecting our natural resources, and sustaining a strong economic base for America.

Georgia Farm Bureau serves nearly 250,000 member families through 158 county Farm Bureau offices located throughout the state. Most of the money you pay in dues remains in your county to be utilized by your local Farm Bureau on your behalf. Since its beginning in 1937, Georgia Farm Bureau has continued to expand and improve services for you – our valuable member families.

In the early years, most Farm Bureau members were farmers, but today’s membership includes Georgians from ALL walks of life. Many services, discounts and benefit programs have been added to increase the value of membership with the goal that every family receives more in benefits than the annual $35 membership dues. Leadership and staff are committed to this goal for future generations.

We hope you take full advantage of all the benefits that come with being a Farm Bureau member. I invite you to see for yourself the tremendous dividends you will receive from investing in your Farm Bureau.

We appreciate your support of Georgia’s families and agriculture. THANK YOU for allowing us the privilege of serving you and your family.

YOUR MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS

Georgia Farm Bureau uses the size and strength of its membership numbers to negotiate partnerships with reputable companies who offer exclusive discounts to Georgia Farm Bureau members, such as:

THE GEORGIA FARM BUREAU INSURANCE REVIEW

Do you understand what’s covered in your insurance policies? For most of us, the answer is no. Insurance is one of the largest purchases households make every year, but is also one that most consumers know the least about. Wouldn’t it be great to have an “insurance expert” available when you need one? As a member, you do! The Georgia Farm Bureau Insurance Review is a service for GFB Members, even if you have a policy with another insurance company.

Georgia Farm Bureau is Georgia’s largest and strongest voluntary agricultural organization with nearly 250,000 members. It is an independent, nongovernmental organization. The membership is composed of members who want Georgia to be agriculturally successful, progressive and prosperous.

Formed in 1937 by 50 farmers, Georgia Farm Bureau continues to have a strong grassroots network with 158 county Farm Bureau organizations. Since its inception, the primary, ongoing goal of Farm Bureau is to be a united voice in the legislative arena, to promote farm markets and to provide leadership and assistance to Georgia’s agricultural community. Farm Bureau is local, state, national and international in scope and influence.

A member of a county Farm Bureau automatically becomes affiliated with the Georgia Farm Bureau and the American Farm Bureau. Farm Bureau members work together to analyze problems and formulate action plans to achieve educational improvement, economic opportunity and social advancement thereby promoting prosperity and growth.

Our grassroots policy development process and county programs assure members of constant contact and input into the programs and activities of Georgia Farm Bureau. Members determine the future of their organization. Membership is not limited to farmers. Anyone interested in agriculture and participating in one of Farm Bureau’s many services may join.

Farm Bureau is dedicated to continually improving and expanding service-tomember programs.

PUBLIC POLICY DEPARTMENT

To fulfill our mission and enhance the value of membership, Georgia Farm Bureau is committed to programs that strengthen our support for agriculture, rural Georgia and our members. Farm Bureau programs are an integral part of who we are. Our strong grassroots network of 158 county Farm Bureau organizations are composed of volunteers working to be the “Voice of Agriculture” while strengthening our rural communities.

From the beginning, Farm Bureau has been a family organization with programs and activities designed to involve every member of the family. Many of these programs are specifically aimed at surfacing future leaders for the organization.

You are encouraged to contact your local county Farm Bureau to find out how you can become a Farm Bureau volunteer. Farm Bureau encourages its members to get involved in their organization by working to promote agriculture, build leadership skills, and recognize excellence.

A STRONG LEGISLATIVE VOICE

Our grassroots process is coordinated by the Public Policy Department staff to help Farm Bureau leaders maintain contact with elected officials at the state and national levels. As a member, your voice is also represented by a team of lobbyists advocating for policies and regulations that support agriculture and rural communities.

Notable successes include sales tax exemptions for farm inputs, property tax relief for farm and forest land, protection from onerous environmental regulations, and assistance through national farm policy and disaster aid.
