Farmers Cooperative Company

 

 

Plan on attending our Annual Meeting to be held at the East Union High School on Wednesday, March 17, 2010.  Supper will be served at 5 p.m. and the business meeting will start at 7 p.m.

The Farmers Cooperative is offering Prepay prices on fertilizer, seed ,and chemicals.  These will be the best prices to help hold down that per acre cost, which actually will put money back in your pocket. This will be most beneficial when used with the FC acre program.  Please contact your local salesperson to see what programs can benefit you the most.
If you have not been to our Mt Ayr store; items offered range from outdoor clothing for men and women, outdoor accessories, power tools, grills, show supplies, wildlife and bird feed.  Check back often as there are alway changing specials on the products we carry.
