Nebraska Corn Board Press Release
LINCOLN, Neb. – CommonGround Nebraska is seeking a highly motivated and outgoing program coordinator to manage a volunteer-based agriculture advocacy program. The coordinator will plan, organize, implement and facilitate a variety of events along with all other activities including budgeting, communication, media/public relations, reporting and additional duties.
CommonGround is a national movement of farm women who want to share information about farming, ranching and the food we grow. Consumers in the cities and suburbs are more disconnected from farm life than ever before, and that disconnect has led to misconceptions about modern farming and the people behind it.
CommonGround Nebraska is a program developed and funded by Nebraska’s corn and soybean farmers through their checkoff investments and is affiliated with the national CommonGround program. The heart of this program is the farm women volunteers who have conversations with consumers about food and how it’s grown and raised. Using shared values, personal experiences, and science and research, the goal is to help consumers sort through the myths and misinformation surrounding food, labels, and farming.
