About CB Farmers Trust

Our Story

Born farmer, lived marine, now financial advisor; Kevin Brunner started CB Farmers Trust for the sole purpose of standing up for farmers. Being raised on a farm, Kevin saw how his grandpa paid the farm, then the government, then his family. Knowing farmers fed this country, seeing the financial struggle never sat right with him. With the discipline he developed in the marines and knowledge he developed as a financial advisor, he founded CB Farmers Trust.

Our goal is to better financial equip farmers and help them build the legacy they've worked their whole lives for. Starting with 100% legal, IRS-approved tax strategies, farmers are able to keep more money in their pocket for their farm and their family.

Why don't all farmers use this strategy found in the IRS code? The short answer is, "they do!" Mainly the large corporate farmers that can afford expensive tax attorneys. Therefore, our goal is to make this process more available to more farmers.
