Regional Advisory Committees

In keeping with Farm Credit East’s strategic vision of retaining a strong grassroots network, the Farm Credit East Board of Directors established Regional Advisory Committees to provide leadership with valuable feedback.
Council members sitting around a long table

Farm Credit East’s Regional Advisory Committees are composed of a cross section of stockholders and other members of the agricultural community who meet two times annually with local Farm Credit East leadership.

Our offices, board and management appreciate the contributions of Regional Advisory Committee members who provide advice and invaluable feedback on a wide variety of topics from market intelligence to business opportunities.
