Who should be a member?
All farmers, ranchers, suppliers, processors and anyone who enjoys California produce are encouraged be a member. Yolo County family farms produce and provide safe, local food, fiber and more.
Why should I be a member?
The Farm Bureau works to tackle the serious issues that face the agricultural community as one of the most heavily regulated segments of the California economy.
Membership is what keeps the organization moving forward and drives the organization’s ability to be an influential voice. There is strength in numbers!
