As harvest season is in full swing here in Northwest Illinois (with not much crop left in the field), your friendly Ag banking team is here to support you during this critical time. We have spent the past week out at grain bins, serving lunches to those hauling, and invited our farmers to grab their crews a meal, to show some appreciation for the significant work of everyone who has been putting in long hours, day and night, to get their crops harvested.
