DuPage County Farm Bureau

DuPage County Farm Bureau Core belief, to promote agriculture and the important role it has in our community and everyday life.

The DuPage County Farm Bureau was formed in 1913 to serve and represent area farmers. Today, it continues to be the leading "Voice of Agriculture" along with the Illinois Farm Bureau and the American Farm Bureau Federation. We now have over 16,000 member-families in the DuPage County area. Some Farm Bureau services are directly related to farmers and farm owners who have vested interest in the agr

icultural industry. Other services are directed toward improving the quality of life for both farmer and urban Members. We provide numerous programs, products, and benefits for all Members. DuPage County has four employees who carry out the programs and policy of our Board of Directors. Kara Norton | Executive Director

Mental health matters, especially in agriculture, where stress and isolation are common. National research shows farmers and ranchers experience su***de rates 2–5 times higher than the general population due to unique pressures like financial uncertainty, weather challenges, and long hours.

This Mental Health Month, remember that support is available at Farm Family Resource Initiative Helpline: 1-833-FarmSOS or 1-833-327-6767 which serves farm families across the entire state of Illinois.
