Western Growers Insurance Services (WGIS) is a full-service risk-management agency for the ag community. Through WGIS, you have access to members-only health benefits—the Western Growers Assurance Trust—designed for your workers’ unique needs where and when they need it at a price that works for your company and employees.

5. To inspire the next generation of farmers—and consumers. Through Western Growers Foundation, you support our mission to plant and sustain a fruit and vegetable garden in every willing Arizona and California school. Children and their parents both eat more fruits and vegetables when the children have the chance to farm their own food. So school gardens affect your company’s revenues now and in the future.
