Communications Specialist - NW

A social media and communications and outreach specialist is a professional responsible for developing and implementing effective social media strategies to enhance an organization's internal and external communications. They play a crucial role in managing the organization's reputation, maintaining consistent messaging, and ensuring effective communication with various stakeholders. They also represent the organization at community events, such as college job fairs, and develop plans and materials to support those outreach initiatives.

For more than 25 years, Threemile Canyon Farms has responsibly provided for the nutritional needs of a growing population through our sustainable dairy and farming operations. While we are proud of our contributions, we know that what sets us apart is not just what we do, but how we do it.

We were early innovators in building a "closed loop" system of sustainable farming, which is made possible by our decision to bring together crop farming and dairy production. These are highly complementary pursuits – particularly when it comes to recycling waste. We put organic waste back into the soil, which not only minimizes the amount of waste we produce but also helps keep our crops healthy.

With more than 39,500 acres of irrigated farmland, we understand that our commitment to responsible farming is important to us as well as our community.
