MISSION

          FARM COUNTRY
          ADVERTISE YOUR BRAND TO THE LIVING ROOMS, KITCHENS, FIELDS, GARDENS,
          COMPUTERS AND SMARTPHONES OF MORE THAN 195,000 MISSISSIPPI FAMILIES.
          Welcome to the re-imagined Mississippi Farm Country, the official publication program for the Mississippi
          Farm Bureau Federation. In 2019, we recently expanded our content focus to appeal to the full Farm Bureau
          membership – to include those who may not live directly on farms, but have an appreciation and affinity for
          rural living. The new Mississippi Farm Country program – in print and digital – serves as a way to connect
          Mississippians with the food they eat and the farmers who grow it.
          Farm Bureau members travel, shop, eat and support local businesses. Through this quarterly magazine,
          harness the buying power of our diverse readership in lucrative markets such as agriculture, food, travel,
          home and garden, and local lifestyles.
