As Columbia continues to grow, Missouri Farm Bureau Insurance has grown as well, adding more local insurance professionals to its agency. “From homeowners and renters’ insurance to auto insurance and commercial insurance, we have Columbia’s growing insurance needs covered,” says Director of Customer Experience Ashton Kidwell.

At Missouri Farm Bureau, they know the importance of being there for the community and helping protect a variety of assets for clients. “When life events or losses occur, being there each step of the way gives our service that extra touch that’s increasingly harder to find,” Kidwell says.

But the agency also focuses inward, always looking for ways to serve and support its team members. “It’s a great place to build a career,” Kidwell says. “Our opportunities are not just limited to those with experience in the insurance industry, and we are a growing company with excellent benefits and abundant professional development resources.”

Along with serving the insurance needs of the community, Missouri Farm Bureau Insurance enjoys contributing to nonprofits and charitable causes as well. “We just wrapped up our Home Run Against Hunger campaign,” Kidwell says. “We raised and donated over $18,000 and two tons of food to Feeding Missouri affiliates in a single month.”

And Kidwell says being recognized for their growing work and winning bronze for Best Insurance Agency/Group has been an absolute honor. “When readers recognize our uniquely Missouri products and exceptional service, it’s a tremendous achievement for our company as a whole.”
