Texas Farm Credit is an agricultural lending cooperative that specializes in rural financing. We provide competitive rates, flexible terms and personal service to farmers, ranchers, rural residents and agribusiness firms, from the Red River to the Rio Grande Valley. Established in 1933, Texas Farm Credit is a part of the nationwide Farm Credit System, which is the leader in financing agricultural production and rural real estate. Our mission is to serve the agricultural and rural community by being a reliable lending source in both good times and bad. As a cooperative, Texas Farm Credit is owned by borrowers just like you and governed by a board of directors who are farmers and ranchers, themselves. That means we always have your best interest in mind and never lose sight of what is important to you. And, your ownership of the co-op entitles you to share in our earnings through our patronage program.

Founded in 1939, WESTconsin Credit Union is one of the region`s strongest financial services providers. Our history takes us back to primarily serving the Menomonie area agricultural community, then operating as Menomonie Farmers Credit Union. We expanded in membership base over the next several years and merged with other small credit unions in the region. In the summer of 1990, we recognized this growth by changing our name to WESTconsin Credit Union. Today, our field of membership footprint includes 28 counties across west central Wisconsin and east central Minnesota with offices in Altoona, Amery, Baldwin, Barron, Chippewa Falls, Eau Claire, Ellsworth, Hudson, Menomonie, New Richmond, Prescott, River Falls and Spring Valley, Wisconsin. We exist to serve the financial needs of our member-owners (accountholders) and our communities. As a not-for-profit financial services organization, we are owned and operated by and for our members. Our members receive dividends back on a daily basis in the form of low-fee products and services. In addition, our not-for-profit status enables us to operate at a lower cost than many for-profit institutions, and helps WESTconsin offer competitive loan and savings rates to our members. We`re based right here in your community, owned by community members like you. You get a higher level of personal service, and can build a long-lasting relationship with people who can help you find the best financial solutions to your unique needs.
