Farm Bureau Insurance and the Williamsburg County South Carolina Farm Bureau Federation Board of Directors donated a grain bin rescue system that will be available for all of Williamsburg County! Clemson University’s Agricultural Safety and AgrAbility associate Shelly Lovern was onsite Nov. 12 in Williamsburg County to train the Williamsburg County Fire and Rescue and the City of Kingstree Fire Department on how to use the grain bin rescue system. “We hope it never has to be used but are proud we could be a part of this effort to ensure our first responders have the tools and training they need to respond to life-threatening situations and to protect our local farming community,” Tommy Newton, agency manager of Farm Bureau Insurance in Kingstree, said.

Honoring Our Veterans - On this Veteran’s Day, we pause to honor our nation’s service men and women, past and present.

We are excited to highlight another agent, Maurice Phillips! Maurice, who is originally from Hartsville, SC, began his career almost 7 years ago. When asked why he loves being an agent for Farm Bureau, Maurice said: “I love the ability to be a positive impact to everyone around me. For me, being an insurance agent isn't a job; it's an important part of my purpose.” Maurice’s advice is: “A great insurance agent is more than ‘who’s the cheapest’. My goal is to provide the best coverages and customer service for your auto, home, and life insurance. While home and auto insurance are required, securing life insurance outside your job should be a top priority to protect your family's future. For all three, I'm happy to assist.” Congratulations, Maurice! We are so thankful for your commitment to Farm Bureau Insurance and to the customers you serve every day! #AgentSpotlight #FarmBureauFamily

We are so thankful for your commitment to Farm Bureau Insurance and to the customers you serve every day! #AgentSpotlight #FarmBureauFamily

Unfortunately, disasters like #Helene can bring out the worst in people. Cybercriminals use these situations to take advantage of vulnerable infrastructures, disaster victims and volunteers through phishing schemes.
