Services
Agricultural Advocacy
Our advocacy services focus on protecting Florida's agricultural interests through legislative action and policy development. We represent farmers and ranchers in regulatory matters at all government levels. Our team works year-round to shape policies that support sustainable farming practices and protect natural resources while maintaining economic viability for agricultural operations.
Youth Education
We provide comprehensive agricultural education programs for Florida's youth through classroom resources and hands-on learning experiences. Our initiatives include Ag Literacy Day, classroom mini-grants, and youth leadership development programs. These efforts help students understand food production and agriculture's economic impact while preparing future industry leaders through scholarship opportunities and skill-building activities.
Community Outreach
Our community outreach programs connect agricultural producers with consumers through educational events and volunteer initiatives. We organize Farm-City Week celebrations, Food Check-Out Week promotions, and local volunteer projects that demonstrate agriculture's importance to Florida's economy and environment. These programs foster mutual understanding between rural and urban communities while promoting agricultural sustainability.
Policy Development
We develop agricultural policy positions through a democratic process involving our 132,000 members. County Farm Bureaus propose resolutions that are debated and voted on at annual meetings. This grassroots approach ensures our policy positions reflect Florida farmers' collective interests. Our 16 advisory committees provide expert guidance on specific agricultural sectors and environmental issues affecting farm operations.

Our membership services provide Florida farmers with advocacy representation, exclusive discounts, and networking opportunities. Members gain access to the nation's largest farm buyers club, legislative updates, and specialized insurance programs.

Canceled our auto Insurance apparently over a $45 "fee" unrelated to the insurance policy (which was set up on auto pay.) No notice was given to us, but we were reported to the State. I would highly recommend, not using their services.

I went there to meet an insurance agent. The place requires check in up front and visitors mask. Plenty of parking and very organized.

Had a homeowners claim with FFB that ended up dragging on endlessly. Made a structural claim after an accident damaged part of the house. The claim was given to an adjuster who was extremely unresponsive. It took almost 4 months for him to write a denial (had to escalate it to his Manager multiple times as he never returned calls). On the rare occasion he did return calls, he would just usher me off of them as soon as he could siting "any questions can be answered in our denial letter" which he said they would be sending from the very first phone call I had with him, before even seeing any evidence

Just spoke with Stacy on the phone and I wasn't impressed. I had general questions that she refused to answer and she was honestly rude about it. She kept skating around them and answer my questions with her own questions.

Terrible, terrible, terrible customer service. My family has been with Farm Bureau for years but that will soon change. They have demonstrated blatant disregard for the coronavirus pandemic and its impacts on FB customers. I called multiple times over the past few months and have received a single call back about my issue, which was promptly shrugged off. Especially because the price of membership and high cost of insurance relative to other companiesyou all should be ashamed of yourselves.

Jes Odom has made changing over all my insurances so convenient. Thank You Jes! I recommend you to everyone I can.
