A seasoned ag communications professional, Rick Purnell is passionate about the positive impact farms and agribusiness have in rural and urban communities. Rick is even more passionate about how a farm or ag operation can develop a true identity within its community. Engaging today’s media, public forums, local government and civic organizations is just one aspect of strengthening relationships with rural and in-town neighbors. I’m active in initiatives to build community support for the professionals who grow our food. I can demonstrate communications approaches for individual operations that create short- and long-term community, zoning and legislative support. Find out more at www.rprcompany.com.
