 Farm
Bureau’s purpose is to protect, preserve, and promote agriculture in general, and the
American Family Farming and Ranching way of life.
The Los Angeles County Farm Bureau was
founded in 1917 and currently has over 5000 members. LACFB is a voluntary,
non-governmental, non-profit membership organization of agricultural producers and
individuals that promote agriculture and agricultural education. Our members are also
dedicated to the support and preservation of agriculture throughout Los Angeles County.
As a grass-roots organization, we give
farmers and ranchers a united voice to protect their common interests without regard to
political or religious affiliations. We also strive to promote agriculture through public
relations and educational programs such as AgDayLA, as well as supporting programs involving the California Foundation for Agriculture in the
Classrooom and California School Garden
Network. LACFB advocates and supports the economic advancement of agriculture while
maintaining a balance with the appropriate management of natural resources.
The Los Angeles County Farm Bureau is
affiliated with a nationwide network of Farm Bureaus organized at the county, state, and
national levels.
