“Those original ten acres symbolize much more than just land; they represent the courage it took for Hallie to delve into a new industry, the foresight to recognize the potential in potato farming, and the passion for agriculture that has been a guiding force in our family,” Leah Halverson, who founded Ten Acre in 2019, commented. “These values—bravery, insight, passion, and enjoyment—are the cornerstones of Ten Acre Marketing. As we serve each client, these principles inspire us to make bold marketing choices and ensure a delightful experience for our customers.

The high-powered marketing agency is headquartered in North Dakota, and supported by a full-remote team of 10 marketing professionals across the states of Minnesota, Michigan, Virginia, Georgia, and California, a press release stated.
