The Lake County Farm Bureau was organized back in 1914, which makes it one of the oldest farm groups in the United States. Originally the bureau was formed to help farmers improve their production practices. Today’s bureau serves both rural and urban people who are interested in production of a plentiful and safe food supply.
The Farm Bureau is a voice for farmers and those with a vested interest in agriculture. Nationally, the organization boasts 4 million families.
The Farm Bureau’s goal is to maintain an organization through which rural and urban people can think, act, and work together to strengthen agriculture’s role and influence. It exists to provide programs and services for each and every member.
The bureau also offers AG in the Classroom programs to area schools and has presenters available for business, church and civic meetings. For more information or to schedule a presentation, call (847) 223-6506.
