Joe Mitchell

Setting the standard in 2026! October is an exciting month for Joe Mitchell State Farm! On October 1, we’re celebrating 10 years since Joe first opened his agency in Helena, and we’re incredibly grateful to our customers and community for their support over the past decade. As the weather gets colder, it’s also a great time to make sure your home, vehicles, and family are protected for the season ahead. We’re looking forward to celebrating Halloween by participating in Fright Night on Main Street in East Helena on October 31—be sure to stop by and see us! And don’t forget to visit our new office at the corner of Euclid and Benton at 301 Euclid Avenue. We’d love to see you!

With two convenient locations in Helena (est. 2016) and East Helena (est. 2023), our team is here to help make sure you have protection in place to protect what matters most throughout life’s milestone moments.
