Farmers Insurance

You may recognize Farmers Insurance® as the brand that knows a thing or two because we’ve seen a thing or two. However, there’s so much more to discover about life at Farmers beyond our catchy commercials. Our story began in 1928 with the simple goal of insuring the vehicles of rural farmers but as the world changed, so did we. Farmers now provides insurance for home, auto, business, recreational, life and financial services to more than 5 million households, generating approximately $19 billion in annual premium.
