About ECFBOur organization actively serves the Edgar County community. Edgar County Farm Bureau recognizes the unique needs in a rural community. From rural advocacy to leadership development, we work on behalf of agriculture to improve our community as a whole. We encourage the non-farming community, ag professionals, and farmers to collaborate to continue safe and healthy food production.

Growing and adapting to always aid in its members' needs, ECFB celebrated 100 years of service in February 2018 at our 100th Annual Meeting and Centennial Celebration.
