We are pleased to announce that Peoples Bank was named a finalist for the American Bankers Association (ABA) Bank Marketing Video Awards for its video featuring the bank’s 23-year long relationship with local Lynden customer Enfield Farms. During this time, Enfield Farms has grown from harvesting 80 acres of berries, to today growing, harvesting, processing and packing well over 1,000 acres and 14 million pounds of berries. Peoples Bank’s Bill Irving has worked with the Enfield family on all aspects of the business, including transferring the operation to the next generation. According to second generation owner Andy Enfield, “It’s super important to have a bank that understands the business and the community.”
Winners will be selected by online votes until July 31, combined with judges’ scores, so we hope you’ll check out the video and share your vote. It would be a tremendous honor to represent Lynden and Whatcom County community at the awards ceremony at the ABA Bank Marketing Conference in New Orleans in September.
Voting information is available at: http://ababankmarketing.com/conference/video-awards/.
