Why retain your associate membership, voting membership?
The Cook County Farm Bureau is an amazing value. At just $20 annually for Associate Members and only $45 for Voting Members, is it really a difficult decision?
During 2025, in his light-hearted approach, Cook County Farm Bureau manager Bob Rohrer is writing Downwind, his monthly column, about the value proposition for Members following the announcement that COUNTRY® Financial no longer requires membership to access certain insurance policies.
April Downwind message: “We Even Answer the Phone” Bonus, call the office and “we actually answer the phone.” Yes, we are real people! Go ahead – try us!
March Downwind message: There is an App for that (saving members big bucks)…the Farm Bureau Membership Benefit Platform Abenity App.
February Downwind message: Check out the IAA Credit Union for great services, great service, and great member benefits. Like a small-town bank but better and your mobile phone is a branch office!
January Downwind message: “Your Farm Bureau membership provides you and your family…”
Need more reasons WHY to renew your membership?
- Where else will you hear/read about the latest in food and farm news?
