Montana Farmers Union has understood the fragility in Montana’s food supply chain for some time. The pandemic brought this reality to the grocery store shelves and pantries of every Montanan. This not only caused the public to panic, but also confusion as to how something like this could happen. Montana Farmers Union recognized the need to educate the public on why food shortages happened and how food policies affect our communities’ food security. Goals of the campaign were to create awareness about the Montana food security issue, drive traffic to the landing page, and encourage people to take action. The campaign focused on real voices and their perspectives of why food security matters. We worked with community members, farmers, ranchers, and business owners to create content that told the story of their individual experiences, educated viewers about why the break in the food supply chain happened, and encouraged people to make their voices heard.
