A little dive into history has us wanting to tell a little bit of our story today. Our mission at AgSafe is, “providing practical health and safety education to the agriculture community”.

As you can imagine we in fact were founded by visionaries who had the same mission. After SB 198, a meeting between several organizations like Zenith Insurance, Agriculture Producers, CSU Fresno, and UCB spurred conversations around how they can assist in providing educational safety programs that would benefit agriculture.

I’m sure you can imagine where this one meeting lead by James (Jim) Meyers went, having led to the creation of the AgSafe coalition. Jim even supporting the creation of the coalition with funding from a grant held by himself and funding from California Farm Safety Program.

As our story unfolds this week we hope you too will enjoy just how the AgSafe non-profit came to be and just how we serve you as our members now.
