Over a Century of Service

Our Company was established by farmers in 1867 to provide fire insurance to its members. Over the years, the name of the company has changed and as of January 1, 2023, we have merged with German Farmers Mutual Fire Insurance Company. The product line has extended beyond just fire insurance. In addition to coverage for fire, we provide for other perils such as theft, vandalism, lightning, water & sewer back up, power surge, etc.

Chisago Lakes-German Farmers Mutual Insurance Company is a member in good standing with many prestigious trade associations, including the Minnesota Association of Farm Mutual Insurance Companies and the National Association of Mutual Insurance Companies.
