Delaware Farm Bureau

Delaware Farm Bureau Our Mission: To promote and protect Delaware agriculture through education and advocacy to ensure a quality of life for farmer and their consumers.

Since it was established in 1944, the Delaware Farm Bureau has become one of the strongest farm organizations in the First State. Delaware Farm Bureau is a non-profit and nongovernmental organization that serves as a unified voice for farmers in the State of Delaware. Controlled by its members through the democratic process and financed through membership dues, this group of over 1,700 farm famili

es and associate members help form a national organization that is over six million strong. These families are united for the purpose of preserving agriculture as an industry and way of life; Farm Bureau is their vehicle to accomplish this. Delaware Farm Bureau is politically active, but nonpartisan. On both the local and national front, Farm Bureau has defended agriculture against unreasonable taxes and regulations, threats to property rights and damaging misconceptions about farming.

National Dairy Month began in June 1937, and the tradition continues today! Did you know Delaware has around 3,000 milk cows producing about 47 million lbs of milk yearly from just 13 dairy farms? Thank you to the hard working dairy farmers and families that are behind milk and dairy products making it to our grocery store shelves every day.

Our team was invited to lead a tri-district Advocacy Workshop for FFA members from Lake Forest FFA, Milford FFA, and Woodbridge FFA.

During the workshop students learned why advocacy matters, how to identify legislative districts, and how to effectively share personal stories. They also practiced introductions, discussed how to share their experience in agriculture, and developed questions to ask elected officials. The future of agriculture looks bright!

May is , and Delaware Farm Bureau encourages farmers to prioritize their well‑being and check in with themselves and those around them. Farming is demanding work, and caring for your mental health is just as important as caring for your farm.

Last year, in partnership with the Delaware Department of Agriculture (DDA), we launched a mental health awareness initiative to support our ag community.

Stickers featuring the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline are available free of charge for use in tractor cabs, farm offices, and other visible areas — a simple reminder that it’s okay to not be okay, and that help is always available.

👉 To request stickers, contact the Delaware Farm Bureau (302) 697-3183 or the Delaware Department of Agriculture (302) 698-4500
