Since 1922, the Benton family and Farmers & Merchants Bank (FMB) have been pillars of financial service in Georgia’s Lake Country. The Bentons, one of Jasper County’s earliest settler families, arrived from North Carolina in 1815 and quickly became instrumental in shaping the community. Their contributions have been pivotal in the establishment of local schools, businesses, hospitals, libraries, and more, leaving a lasting legacy of civic involvement.
FMB proudly carries forward the Benton family’s tradition of community service, providing not only financial support but also dedicating countless hours to improving the quality of life in their community and surrounding areas. They are committed to offering exceptional banking services with a personal touch, ensuring that every customer receives the highest level of care.
With five banks under the Putnam-Greene Financial Corporation, FMB offers unmatched lending strength, a distinctive advantage among community banks. This robust financial foundation allows them to meet the diverse needs of their clients while continuing to support the growth and development of their region.
As they look to the future, Farmers & Merchants Bank remains dedicated to upholding the values of integrity, service, and community that have defined them for over a century.
