Farm Bureau Insurance of South Carolina

September is Life Insurance Awareness Month. We’re committed to educating consumers about the importance of life insurance this month and beyond. Contact your local office to see what coverage is right for you.

It's important to incorporate a few practices into your routine to help keep your personal information personal. Be sure to shred all documents that are not being retained for your records. Remember, always trust your instincts.

We are excited to highlight another agent, Austin King!

Austin, who is originally from Florence, SC, began his career 8 years ago.
