Who We Are

Stewardship Advisory LLC was founded by Jim Bland, with 35+ years' experience in commercial banking, agricultural lending, insurance, and financial planning.


Working directly with farm and business owners revealed a consistent challenge—financial decisions are often made without a coordinated strategy.


Stewardship Advisory was created to provide independent, fee-only guidance that aligns capital, risk, and long-term planning.


Jim works with agricultural operators and closely held business owners who value clarity, preparation, and long-term stewardship of their operations and legacy.
