Joe Vernon

A caring person that likes to help, that’s me! I was born and raised in Eldon and the Lake area. I have had Lake property and experience on the Lake my entire life. The Lake is truly my home!

Growing up as a 2nd generation State Farm Agent fits me to a T. My Dad, John Vernon, started his agency in Eldon with State Farm in May 1956. After 35 years he retired in June 1991. That is when my career began with State Farm. Between my Dad and I, The Vernon Agency has represented State Farm Insurance for over 66 years of State Farm’s 100 years in business. Needless to say, my blood bleeds red for State Farm. Over the years I have seen many industry changes and tech advances that enhance the performance and flow of our everyday office procedures. I truly feel that we are now, more than ever, in the position to help our customers with whatever curve is thrown their way in terms of Insurance for your Automobile, Home, Renters, Farm/Ranch, Boat, PWC, and Life. My staff and I have over 100 years of experience at State Farm combined. We take the time to get to know you as a person and do all we can to make things better for you upon a claim situation.

Outside of work, I might be found at the Lake fishing or in the trout stream at Bennett Springs or the cold waters of Devil’s Lake in North Dakota searching for Walleye. I enjoy Deer Hunting in the Fall and Bird Hunting for turkey, pheasant and quail. I enjoy shooting sports which include Trap and my new found favorite, Sporting Clays.

Stop by our office, email or call. We would love to get to know you and assist you with what insurance needs you have today.
