Meet the Team
The New Hampshire Farm Bureau Federation is comprised of 10 COUNTY Farm Bureaus. This means the TEAM begins with YOU!!
A grassroots, volunteer, and membership based organization, NHFB's strength comes from its federation of county Farm Bureaus. At the county level, problems and successes are shared. Policies are proposed and brought forth to the State office. Each county has representation on the larger State Board of Directors. It is here that statewide issues are shared and policies debated, suggested, and passed. These policies are the guiding light for agriculture advocacy at the legislative level.
