It's sum-, sum-, summertime, and time for our newsletter. From retirements to Dairy Days to the latest in fraud prevention, catch up on what’s happening at F&M in our current issue of The Local Ledger. Read it now: mailchi.mp/fmpierz/q2-202….
Today, Mitch is celebrating five years with F&M Bank as an Ag & Business Lender in Eden Valley. Since joining us, he’s made a real difference for the bank and local community through his hard work, knowledge and volunteerism. We truly value you, Mitch, and all you do. Happy #5!
This Memorial Day (Monday, May 25), Farmers & Merchants State Bank will be closed. We will pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Please join us in taking a moment to reflect, remember, and give thanks.
What a night to celebrate some amazing local students! On May 13, Farmers & Merchants State Bank had the honor of attending scholarship award nights at Eden Valley-Watkins, Sauk Rapids-Rice, and Pierz High Schools—and we loved every minute of it.
At Farmers & Merchants State Bank, we’re honored to serve the farm families, co-ops, and local ag businesses who work around the clock in our rural communities—thank you. With most acres in, mid‑spring is the perfect time for a quick financial tune-up.
The last of our three FREE paper shredding events are happening tomorrow at our Farmers & Merchants State Bank Eden Valley and Pierz locations. Everyone is invited to bring in confidential papers you've been wanting to shred. Please NO early drop-offs for security reasons.
Thank you to all the moms who wake up early, stay up late, build businesses, run farms, work, volunteer, cheer from the bleachers, and keep families strong with endless acts of love. You make our hometown a better place. Happy Mother’s Day. #MothersDay
Just a friendly reminder! The first of our three FREE paper shredding events is happening tomorrow (SAT, May 9) at our Farmers & Merchants State Bank Sauk Rapids location, 1301 2nd St N, Sauk Rapids, MN 56379. From 9 AM to NOON. More at: fmpierz.com/2026/04/15/fre….
Cinco de Mayo is famous for its celebrations, but at its core, it’s about resilience, community, and facing challenges together. We see these values every day in the families, small businesses, and farmers we’re proud to serve in central Minnesota. ¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo!
This week is National Teacher Appreciation Week & Day. To all the teachers, paraprofessionals, coaches, and school staff at Pierz School District, Eden Valley-Watkins School District, and Sauk Rapids-Rice School District who pour their hearts into our kids every day, thank you.
This Thursday, we’re saying goodbye to Karen, our Teller in Sauk Rapids. After almost 14 years with Farmers & Merchants State Bank, she’s retiring. To celebrate and wish her well, we invite customers to stop by for a beverage and cupcake on Thursday, April 30th, her last day.
April is Community Banking Month, and as this month draws to a close, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on what community banking actually means. Explore our full 2025 Community Impact Giving Report and see the difference your community bank is making: fmpierz.com/wp-content/upl…

Easter is a time to remember the hope, renewal, and love that come from Christ’s resurrection. We hope this Easter brings peace to your heart, joy to your home, and renewed faith for the days ahead. Happy Easter from everyone at Farmers & Merchants State Bank.
