Ten Acre Marketing earned two first-place honors at 2026 Best of NAMA Awards, held April 15 at the Marriott St. Louis Grand. The National Agri-Marketing Association presents the annual program to honor the best work in agricultural marketing communications, selected by a committee of peers.
Entries compete regionally before advancing to nationals. Ten Acre received honors for 13 projects at the regional level this year.
National top honors in corporate identity went to Ten Acre for its rebrand of the Southwest International Produce Expo for the Fresh Produce Association of the Americas. The new identity introduced a bold, Southwest-influenced visual system, rolled out in promotion of the 2026 event. It positioned SWIPE as a growing regional event, boasting record attendance this year.
The agency’s second first-place win was awarded for point-of-purchase materials for Bright Bounty, a consumer produce brand that Ten Acre developed for DiSilva Fruit. Ten Acre named the brand, designed the identity and website and built a scalable packaging system across more than 52 SKUs. Within a week of its launch, supermarket operators were asking DiSilva to begin packing produce under the new Bright Bounty label.
“Agriculture deserves and needs marketing that can win anywhere,” says Leah Halverson, founder of Ten Acre Marketing. “It’s a thrill to win awards, but it’s even more meaningful to know that our work has impact and is meeting our mission to amplify the power of agriculture. These first-place honors are validation that our work is delivering for our clients.”
Ten Acre Marketing says it positions brands to advance agriculture, and by bringing its mission to like-minded clients, the agency helps brands are compete in the marketplace while standing out in their industry.
