Iowa Food & Family Project
The Iowa Food & Family Project is all about celebrating families, uniting rural and urban communities and providing the information and experiences consumers need to make informed food choices. Iowans are invited to explore how food is grown around the state and meet the farmers who make it happen; 24/7, 365 days a year.
The initiative involves a collaborative network of nearly 35 food, farming, and healthy living organizations who are proud of Iowa’s homegrown foods and hometown values.
Marketing & Facilitation
Emerge Marketing Solutions
Emerge Marketing Solutions is a full-service marketing agency based in Manning, Iowa, committed to investing in the future of rural communities. While we offer services like branding, website development, videography, social media management, and strategic marketing, our deeper mission goes beyond marketing. We believe rural Iowa holds powerful stories, resilient people, and incredible potential. That’s why we created Evolution of the Heartland, an initiative designed to showcase the vibrancy of rural life, connect communities, and drive awareness around the opportunities to live, work, and thrive in small-town Iowa. By telling these stories and shining a light on local people, places, and possibilities, we’re working to change perceptions and help rural Iowa emerge stronger than ever.
