Steps to Becoming a Member

It's as easy as 1-2-3

  1. Each new cooperative member must complete a membership application and is required to pay a one-time membership fee.
  2. Each cooperative member must be an annual dues paying member of one of our sponsoring state or national commodity grower associations or other sponsoring entities.
  3. A prospective member must enroll through one of a limited number of authorized representatives.

As a prospective member of Growers National Co-op there are some things we want you to know.

  • Authorized representatives of the cooperative are not allowed to promise, estimate or guarantee any patronage refund from the cooperative, either directly or indirectly, in any year.

  • We do not want you to purchase any product or service with the hope, promise or expectation that you may get or be entitled to a patronage refund.

  • Patronage dividends, if any, and as authorized by the Board of Directors, will comply with state insurance regulations, the Standard Reinsurance Agreement issued by RMA, and other applicable cooperative regulations.

  • It is not necessary to be a member of a cooperative to purchase any products endorsed or offered by an authorized representative of the cooperative.

  • Operational, management and day-to-day decisions of the cooperative will be governed by the Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, the Board of Directors and the vote of the members, not by the authorized representative enrolling you.

  • As a member of Growers National Co-op, I am not required to purchase my crop insurance through it in order to receive a patronage dividend.
