About Us
Neighbor helping neighbor
People helping people since 1888
Nearly one million Minnesotans count on the security and protection township mutual insurance brings. They depend on their township mutual to protect their homes, their farms, and their personal property.
All of this grew out of a basic concept: people pitching in to help each other when disaster struck. It’s an idea as old as civilization itself — and it’s the concept behind Buffalo Lake-New Auburn Mutual Insurance Company.
Our mission is to provide the best coverage at a competitive rate with superior service to policyholders, while remaining a financially strong company.
