CommonGround Iowa
CommonGround is based on the idea that we need to make food and farming more personal. As consumers get further away from the farm, the more questions they have.
Their trust in farming increases when they understand that real families are raising their food and that they share common values and expectations.
CommonGround Committees
Social Media Committee
Efforts are focused on growing a social media following to tell the story of agriculture and the families that work every day to provide the nation with a steady food and fuel supply.
Media/PR Committee
Work to continue agricultural outreach through new releases, articles, TV segments, radio slots, etc.
Events Committee
Plan and execute events to promote the CommonGround group and the volunteers that love to tell their personal agriculture stories while truly connecting with moms on the farm to fork journey.
