Michigan Partnerships

At Farm Bureau Insurance we’re dedicated to serving Michigan - and only Michigan. Hard work, honest service and care for Michigan’s future are values that guide us today and are the reason why we are known as Michigan’s Insurance Company.

Regions

To better protect and provide the best service possible, we've divided the state into five sales partnerships. Each partnership is led by a team of Managing Partners with support from a Regional Coordinator and dedicated support teams throughout the Home Office.

Work For Yourself, But Not By Yourself

Farm Bureau Insurance is looking for individuals interested in running their own business while becoming a difference maker in their community. We offer a competitive financing program, marketing support, training and education, and incentives. At Farm Bureau, we believe there are few careers that make a profound impact on an entire community the way an agent does. We believe in the nobility of what we do and that being an agent is something to be proud of.
