How to Join
Everyone is eligible to apply for Farm Bureau membership and receive the many
benefits and services available. You don't have to be a farmer or rancher to join Farm Bureau. When you join, you are applying for membership in the county Farm Bureau where you live or work. Farmers and ranchers who receive income from production agriculture join as Voting Members and receive the weekly
Ag Alert®, California's number one agricultural trade journal. All others join as Sustaining Members and receive the bimonthly
California Country, filled with useful information and background on food production, home gardening and other subjects. Each county has different dues rates for both Voting and Sustaining Members.
Choose the most convenient way to join:
- By Telephone—Call us at 559.584.3557, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. (PST) and have your VISA or MasterCard ready for dues payment. Be ready to provide your name, address (residence, property ownership or place of business), and phone number.
- By Mail—Complete and mail an application form to the Kings County Farm Bureau, 870 Greenfield Avenue, Hanford, CA 93230. We will contact you to verify the dues rate and to arrange payment for your dues.
