FARMERS HELPING FARMERS
Iowa Farm Bureau, Farming Community Disaster Exchange*
Recent flooding in western Iowa has caused tremendous damage, devastating farms, homes and communities. The farming community is doing what it does best when disaster strikes – lending a helping hand to those in need.
To facilitate that neighbor-helping-neighbor process, the Iowa Farm Bureau has developed the Farming Community Disaster Exchange – an online message board where Iowans can offer help to those impacted by the floods, or to seek assistance.
Whether it’s donating extra hay, offering clean-up assistance or helping house livestock – simply post services you’re willing to provide. Need help? Use this message board as a way to ask for assistance as well. The message board also has a search function to help you search for topics.
*This exchange is a centralized resource to share information.
PLEASE NOTE: it is the sole responsibility of message board users to contact each other to negotiate interactions or transactions.
