GreenStone is committed to supporting agriculture and our rural communities. How we provide that support looks different for each of our members – because no two farms or families are the same! We provide tailored lending and financial solutions to a wide variety of members, all across Michigan and northeast Wisconsin.

No matter the size of your operation, our team of lending experts can work with you to find a solution for your unique needs. Whether you farm five or 5,000 acres, we have financing options to support you!

One of the ways we support the rural way of life is through our part-time financing options. No matter your goal, from raising livestock, selling produce from your garden, or are exploring hobby businesses such as beekeeping, GreenStone offers specialized lending to help you secure financing for pole barns, fencing, utility vehicles or equipment, or anything else needed for a thriving farm or rural business.

As a young, beginning, or small farmer, GreenStone’s CultivateGrowth program is designed to help you build a successful agricultural operation at whatever scale you’re dreaming of through grants, education, mentorship, and specialized financing. We provide support to individuals who meet one or more requirements:

• Between the ages of 18-35 years old
• 10 years or less of farming experience
• Earn less than $350,00 in annual gross income from production agriculture

GreenStone has been helping farmers and families build businesses, lives, and legacies for over a century. Our agriculture loan options can help cover operating costs, equipment, livestock, land, and building improvements.

We also provide agribusiness loans to those providing vital services to the agriculture industry, including vet services, customer harvesting, timber processing, food processing, storage and more.

For those looking to build their rural life, we help residents achieve their dreams through financing for country living, including country homes, home construction, home sites, and recreational land.

We understand no two members are the same. That’s why we offer a wide range of financial services tailored to your unique needs! To find a solution that’s right for you, pleasant don’t hesitate you reach out to your local GreenStone branch.
