Farmers Electric Cooperative Inc

About

Farmers Electric strives to adhere to the seven basic principles observed by all true cooperatives. These principles are the guideposts of doing business that elevates the consumer/member to the level of owner and places the cooperative at service to the local community instead of faraway investors. Interestingly, the seven core principles have their origins in the 1844 Industrial Revolution in England, and includes voluntary and open membership; democratic member control; member's economic participation; autonomy and independence; education, training and information; cooperation among cooperatives; and concern for community.
