Company History

Farmers Grain Elevator is a privately owned grain company located in Yolo, CA on Interstate 5. Farmers Grain Elevator was established in 1937 by Thomas Mezger of Zamora, CA.  Originally serving as a scale house, it eventually became a storage facility and grain purchasing center for local growers. As customer demands grew, Farmers Grain Elevator saw the need to provide quality transportation services for the grower’s harvested crop and in 1971 established Mezger Trucking, Inc. For over 70 years, Farmers Grain Elevator has specialized in the carriage and distribution to market of wheat, corn, barley, safflower and various other agricultural products.
 
Since its inception Farmers Grain Elevator has remained a family business. It is currently co-owned and operated by Dan and Mark Mezger.
