Farmers Insurance - Peterson Agency
Although many companies have grown from small beginnings to become giants in their industries, Farmers is one of the few to start a business only one year before the greatest economic depression in American history and still survive to become a household name. Innovative business thinking and our commitment to doing what’s right for the communities we’re privileged to serve have been a hallmark of Farmer’s since 1928 and have propelled us from a tiny one-room office in downtown Los Angeles to offices and homes all across America. Farmers Insurance Group of Companies® was built to last, with a firm foundation of reliable businesses and a dedication to continual improvement. What began as a simple car insurance company for farmers has become a multi-line, multi-company insurance and financial services group with a solid reputation.
Our Agency’s focus is helping families insure their homes, autos, umbrellas, recreational vehicles, and pets.
