Make your money work harder

Become a Farm Bureau member today

If you aren’t a member of Kansas Farm Bureau, you should consider changing that today. The organization offers a host of money-saving member benefits and you can show support for Kansas farmers and ranchers.

The benefits can save you money on large and small purchases. For example, members can save $500 when purchasing a new Ford vehicle, discounts from cell phone providers like Nex-Tech and Verizon, and up to 20 percent savings on Choice Hotels.

Utilizing the benefits is key. The savings quickly outpace the cost of membership.

“We save $108 a year on our Nex-Tech cell phone bill,” Clara Estes Mull from Ottawa County, says. “The cost to be a member of Ottawa County Farm Bureau Association is only $50 a year.”

If you travel for work or play, consider using the discounts on Choice Hotels and Wyndham Hotels. Even a brand-new member can save right away. Just ask Rachel Harman from Ellis County.

“We already had two hotel stays booked for baseball tournaments, but I went online and re-booked with the Kansas Farm Bureau member benefit codes saving our family $114.15.”

With more than 40 benefits, keeping track of them all may seem daunting, but guess what? There is an app for that. Members can download the “FB Benefits” app for Android or Apple phones. It will show you what benefits are close by and keeps a copy of your membership card and number.

“The app is a handy tool for our members,” Debbie Hargrave, director of KFB’s member benefits, says. “It’s easy to set up and can quickly show you what benefits are in your neighborhood, town, county and state.”

If you’re not a member and would like to become one, go to http://www.kfb.org/join or call 785-587-6114. Current members can view member benefits by installing the benefits app, visiting http://www.kfb.org/memberbenefits or calling the number listed above.
