Effective communications that build value for our food and ag clients.

Farmers Communications Exchange is a public relations and social media firm with a long history of working to help farmers tell their unique stories. At Farmers Communication Exchange, we believe in using all the tools available to us to share our clients’ stories. We build storytelling into your everyday communications because — by telling great stories about real people, places, families, traditions, struggles and celebrations — we can change the way people see your product and create bonds between you and your target audiences. Whether you’re trying to connect with consumers, media, regulators, retailers, restaurants or farmers, we create communications that deliver results.

There’s nothing greater than getting to share your food, farming, and family stories. 🤍

Highlighting agriculture is not something we take lightly. These are the families growing the food that feeds our nation, and we believe people need to understand what it takes to farm, why farmers do what they do, and the families behind the food on our tables.

Every farm has a story. Every family has a reason for doing what they do. And those stories are worth knowing, sharing, and standing behind.

Getting to work with California pear growers year after year is a privilege, and we’re grateful for every opportunity to capture the people and stories behind California pears.

Here’s a little behind the scenes of some recent work. 🍐

How do you get a younger generation excited about cantaloupe? 🍈

From securing Specialty Crop Block Grant funding to developing the campaign strategy, coordinating creative partners, and managing digital and social efforts, our team has been proud to help California Cantaloupes rethink how an agricultural commodity can connect with today’s consumers.

Recently, Farmers Communication Exchange President Marilyn Freeman joined Nick Papagni on the AgNet West podcast to talk about how California Cantaloupes is taking a fresh approach to reaching Gen Z and younger consumers.

🎧 Listen here: https://agnetwest.com/california-cantaloupes-social-media-gen-z/

The conversation dives into the strategy behind the campaign, including how we’re using social media, UGC creators, humor, and authentic stories from California cantaloupe growers and farm families to connect with a new generation of shoppers.

It’s a campaign that has brought together a lot of moving pieces, and a lot of Farmers Communication Exchange team members behind the scenes. Miranda Olagaray has helped lead the strategy and ex*****on, while Christina Nguyen has helped develop and generate UGC content designed specifically to resonate with younger audiences.

Although it isn’t harvest season, the work never stops.📢 🧑‍🌾

This winter we’ve been busy developing a campaign for our client, the California Pear Advisory Board (CPAB), highlighting the challenges local growers face due to the surge of Argentine pear imports.

Through CPAB’s social media channels, along with outreach to local and trade media, we were able to amplify this message while the board works with the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative to help protect California farmers.

The response to the campaign has been outstanding. Not only has it generated media coverage, but it has also opened conversations with Argentine importers who are willing to work collaboratively toward a solution so both industries can sell pears in harmony.

This campaign is a powerful reminder that social media gives organizations the ability to tell their own story and spark meaningful conversations that can lead to real change.

To see more from CPAB’s campaign, follow California Pears on Instagram, Facebook, and X.

Interested in using social media to support your industry and build momentum around an issue that matters? Give us a call. At Farmers Communication Exchange, we’re here to help share your story in a way that leaves a lasting impact.

California’s leafy greens farming never ceases to amaze us! 🥬 🌱 🥦 ✨

Last week, we worked with our client, the California LGMA, to share the story of all that’s being done to keep leafy greens safe with food safety advocates Dr. Darin Detwiler and Kathleen Gillin. Kathleen’s daughter, Riley, was sickened in the 2006 spinach outbreak that led to the creation of the LGMA. Today, Kathleen serves as the public member on the LGMA Board.

Together, we saw romaine harvest, sampled broccoli straight from the field, met with food safety personnel who ensure the safety of the water used in farming leafy greens, visited a compost operation, got an up-close view of spinach harvest, and toured a state-of-the-art cooling facility — all dedicated to producing safe leafy greens.💚
