2024 Youth Feed Financing Program

Mar 28, 2024


Key Cooperative is pleased to offer 4-H & FFA members special financing on feed for their animal projects! This financing option allows youth to charge feed to their individual account with Key and not accrue any interest until after the project is complete. 

Financing is available now and balances are due in September. Each 4-H or FFA member participating in the financing program will need to fill out a brief project summary form and submit a credit application for approval.
