A year after the United States Congress created the Farm Credit System, GreenStone Farm Credit Services approved its first farm mortgage loan in 1917. For the first time, farmers had ready access to amortized loans. Since then, we've evolved to continually bring financial innovations to the agricultural community in Michigan, Wisconsin, and beyond.
From young farmers to commercial operations, rural residents to value-added agricultural organizations, our business is to help you, our customer, succeed at meeting your unique goals.
As the face of agriculture changed, so did we. Our merger of the four regional Farm Credit Associations in Michigan into one association in January 2000, and the merger of the Upper Peninsula and northeast Wisconsin in January 2003 reflects that. Agricultural operations are now larger and more sophisticated and our goal is to remain responsive and continue to offer the best services and interest rates possible. Our size and financial strength allow us to dependably provide the sophisticated products and services demanded by today’s marketplace. Our local presence assures we will also continue to provide the personal service that has made our relationships with our customers, large and small, so strong.
