Raise your voice for family farmers. Join Nebraska Farmers Union today!

Faced with a lack of fair and accessible markets, Nebraska farmers began organizing Farmers Union creamery coops in Antelope County in 1911. By 1913, the Farmers Union cooperative movement had spread across the state and Nebraska Farmers Union (NeFU) became chartered and affiliated with National Farmers Union. Since 1911, NeFU has organized an amazing 445 cooperatives across the state.

Our grassroots organization includes farmers and ranchers of all sizes and kinds including small town and rural businesses and communities as well as food, conservation, renewable energy and rural advocates who work together on behalf of family farm agriculture and a better food system.

We are the dedicated voice of family farming, and we aim to preserve a sustainable economy that benefits each of us where we live, while providing domestically grown, healthy choices for consumers.

  • Or, if you are interested in opportunities for education about the impact of the Food Safety Modernization Act…
