John Deere Partner Recognition Program

EAA members in the United States and Canada can receive substantial discounts worth up to thousands of dollars by taking advantage of the new John Deere Partner Program. This program, the first of its kind for longtime EAA sponsor John Deere, is available exclusively to EAA members. Discounts are provided toward the purchase of a variety of John Deere equipment, including lawn and garden tractors, riding mowers, walk-behind mowers, Gator utility vehicles, commercial mowing equipment, and compact utility tractors that are purchased through the program.

"We're very excited about this program because it provides a real benefit to our members," said EAA President Tom Poberezny. "Only EAA members can participate, meaning we can pass on a significant benefit to our members at the local level."

How the program works

To take advantage of the program, an eligible EAA member will need to access a special John Deere Partner Program website through the EAA Members Only website to obtain a personal identification number (PIN). Once the PIN is assigned, print out an authorization document, which includes the PIN. Then take the printout to an authorized dealer and present your current EAA Membership card to get the discounted price. (Discounts may vary depending upon the product and the season.)

EAA members in the U.S. are allowed additional discounts even on items in special pricing or financing programs.

This discount is available to EAA Members who have been members for 3 or more months. All participants in the program must present an EAA membership card to the John Deere Dealer at the time of purchase. That means you or a friend can take advantage of this great EAA member benefit by joining EAA now!

Foreign countries, other than Canada, may not participate in the program at this time.

John Deere has been a major corporate sponsor of EAA AirVenture Oshkosh since 1987 and currently supplies 165 Gator utility vehicles to the annual event, as well as 27 compact utility tractors that pull people-moving trams and tow small aircraft. John Deere also provides grounds maintenance equipment as a year-round corporate partner.

"This program is the first of its kind for John Deere," said John Deere Factory Marketing Manager Greg Weekes. "It acknowledges our successful Partner with EAA and our commitment to the future."
