Real Farms. Real facts.
FACT AND FIELD
There is a story to tell about agriculture.
We help you tell it.
Too often, the people who know the least about farming are the loudest voices talking about it. Fact and Field, a division of Social Sound, helps farmers take control of their own story through social media, public relations and good, old-fashioned storytelling.
-
We help your neighbors and community understand what you do, why you do it and how modern agriculture really works.
No lectures. No jargon. No lies. Just real stories from real farms.
-
People don't follow social media pages because they want to be lectured. They follow because they want to learn something, see something interesting and have a little fun.
We mix education with personality, humor and behind-the-scenes looks at farm life to give people a reason to keep following.
-
We believe advocacy works best when you've already built an audience and earned their trust.
First, we educate. Then we entertain. We build trust and make friends. Then, when an important issue comes along, your audience is more likely to listen.
That's advocacy that doesn't feel like advocacy.
EDUCATE. ENTERTAIN. ADVOCATE.
That’s how we help farms tell their stories.
