NORMAL, ILL. – 1st Farm Credit Services
welcomes Ryan Voorhees as a Crop Insurance Specialist in the
Eureka, Normal and Pekin branch offices. Voorhees will
assist clients with their crop insurance needs in McLean,
Tazewell and Woodford counties.
Voorhees is a native of Washington, Ill. He
grew up on a diversified crop, hog, and beef cattle
operation. Ten years ago, Voorhees started a sweet corn and
pumpkin road side stand on the farm.
Voorhees graduated from the University of
Illinois with a B.S. in Agri Finance. He was active in the
Alpha Gamma Rho agricultural fraternity, Alpha Zeta
agricultural honors society, Student Alumni Ambassadors and
was a member of the Senior 100 Honorary.
"I am looking forward to meeting and working
with farmers, and be able to help them in any way I can,"
said Voorhees. "With unstable weather patterns the last few
years in Illinois, it appears that crop insurance coverage
is no longer being considered an option but a requirement
for a successful operation."

in farm real estate loans, and provides various services
such as crop insurance, life insurance, loan and lease
options, as well as farmland appraisals. The cooperative
