In the wake of the devastating July floods across Texas, rural agricultural producers—our farmers and ranchers—are facing overwhelming losses. While millions have been raised for general flood relief, the needs of Texas ag producers risk being overlooked.
Co-op member Kasey Mock, ALC, and the team at Mock Ranches have launched the MR Agriculture Flood Relief Fund through their 501(c)(3), Mock Ranches Gives. Their mission is clear: raise $200,000 for Texas farmers and ranchers who were directly affected by the July floods.
100% of the funds, donations, and supplies raised will go directly to Texas agricultural producers to help them rebuild fences, corrals, and agricultural infrastructure lost in the floods.
How it Works
With the money raised, they will purchase gift cards from local farm & ranch stores (examples include: McCoy’s, Murdoch’s, Hoffpauir’s Ranch & Supply). These gift cards will be distributed to Texas farmers and ranchers who received damage during the floods.
They will partner with these stores to ensure recipients receive the best pricing possible on their supplies.
