An ECC donation option for farmers

If you are interested in donating towards the City of Elma-Elma Community Complex (ECC) project with a gift of corn, we have been blessed with an opportunity to maximize your donation. KMAX Farms will donate an extra 10 cents per bushel of corn towards the ECC project.

Ex. Joe Farmer donates a 1000 bushel of corn to the ECC project and delivers the corn to KMAX Farms. KMAX Farms will pay the current price at IAS in Elma plus a minimum of 10 cents per bushel and write a check to ECC. Joe Farmer will be credited for his donation to the ECC project at the total price paid for the corn. At the conclusion of the project, KMAX Farms will donate another 10 cents a bushel to ECC for all the corn donated.

If you have any questions for KMAX Farms, please call Max Schmidt at 319-240-9076. If you have questions on ECC, please call Erin Ludwig or Bruce Weigel at 641-393-2301 or learn more.
