YF&R FARM PAC® Raffle and Silent Auction

The California Farm Bureau Young Farmers and Ranchers Committee invites you to join the fun and excitement of its annual raffle to benefit the California Farm Bureau Fund to Protect the Family Farm (FARM PAC®). Funds raised by the drawing are used to support candidates for public office who share our goal of protecting the farming and ranching way of life. You just might be the one to walk away with one of five custom prize packages.

No contribution is necessary to enter the raffle. Contributions or gifts to The Fund to Protect the Family Farm are not tax deductible.
