Delta land is famous for being some of the richest in the world.

​

But Google "Mississippi Delta farming" and it's bad news.  "Mississippi Delta Farmers Wither Under Weight of..." and "American Farmers Are In Crisis" and "Mississippi Delta Farmers Face Another Difficult Year..."

​

We want to change that.

 

It's true times are tough and farming ain't easy.  But it's also true our farmers are resilient, cutting-edge, and world-class.  We have so much to be proud of.

​

We want to share Mississippi Delta farming with the world.

​

​

Want to help?

 

We're looking for farmers who:

​

1. Took photos & video (or are game to).  Snapshots from the cab, sunset beauty shots.  Your crop, fields, farm families.  Specialized stuff too: newly laid poly pipe, particularly pernicious pigweed, R+D trials of cool new hybrids, grading in action... 

2. Welcome visitors.  We've got PLANS!  And know from personal experience: sometimes city slickers could use a little help differentiating a "bin" from a "silo," or a picker from a combine -- and understanding exactly why people write songs about "John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16."

3. Can connect us with other farmers who'd want to help.

​

What're we going to do with it?

​

Make the Delta look good!

​

We're working on a few projects that share the Delta with the world.  Shared Experiences was founded as a travel company, but we think there are lots of ways to share the American experience -- in person and online.

​

​

What do we know about farming?

​

Shared Experiences founder Colleen led business strategy, production planning, and R&D for major ag companies.  And yes, she's done a stint in Silicon Valley marketing -- crop marketing.  She specializes in translating hort-speak to consumers, sharing what's special about a crop...and its farm.

​

You know it best:  farming IS a shared experience.  We want to capture what makes it great -- and share it with the world!
