The Delaware Farm Bureau (DEFB) has announced the addition of Ashley Holmes to its team, naming her as the organization’s new Digital Media Assistant. In her new capacity, Holmes will work to spotlight the organization’s programs, upcoming events, and the broader world of Delaware agriculture through digital content and outreach.
Holmes comes to the position with a strong foundation in both agriculture and marketing, along with a genuine enthusiasm for telling the stories of Delaware’s farming families. She earned a bachelor’s degree in agricultural communications from Oklahoma State University and went on to gain experience in agricultural education and communications work with the Delaware Department of Agriculture. Today, Holmes also runs her family’s operation, Alley Mill Farm, located in Clayton, Delaware.
In her new role, Holmes will support DEFB’s core mission of promoting and protecting Delaware agriculture through education and advocacy — with the ultimate goal of securing a strong quality of life for farmers, their families, and the consumers they serve. Her work will include developing social media content, maintaining the organization’s website, and building digital campaigns designed to raise DEFB’s profile online.
“I am excited to work for the Delaware Farm Bureau because it provides me the opportunity to support our farmers and agricultural community,” Holmes said. “I look forward to helping advocate for agriculture, building strong relationships with producers, and contributing to an organization that works hard to ensure a successful future for Delaware’s farming families.”
