I’ve never been involved with an organization quite like Farmers Business Network… I can’t even think of a word to describe this machine (and I don’t like machine, because it’s actually people –really sharp people that are driven, and dedicated to excellence). Our vision is very simple, we exist to empower growers. We currently have about a million ways we accomplish this mission, and we’ve been growing faster than any startup I’ve ever been involved with. With all of this growth, we will soon be adding some new positions, I wanted to share our most recent release and encourage my network to apply if they are interested…
