The Pennsylvania Farm Bureau

The PFB has a long history of supporting the Ag industry, as do we! At First Citizens, we know strong partnerships are important to every farmer's success, and we are excited to embark on a new partnership with the PFB to support additional initiatives that benefit local farmers. 

Maybe you've seen our logo on one of the PFB's seven Mobile Ag Ed Science Labs while they're visiting schools throughout the state. In 2018, we will be sending teachers to the PA Friends of Ag Foundations Educators Ag Institute, sponsoring educational forums, and make available to you the expertise of MSC Services. They specialize in tax and record keeping services for farmers. 

As part of this partnership, we've also agreed to help our farmers directly by offering an annual $75 discount on loan documentation preparation fees for each PFB and First Citizens customer. Talk to your Ag Banker for details!
