Word of Mouth

The Farm

We spend little on formal advertising, so we'd appreciate if you'd tell all your friends, neighbors, and coworkers about our farm.

If you'd like to help spread the word, here's a flyer (in PDF format).

Rick and Nancee Moster Pontious

Both Rick and Nancee have (always had) full-time work in addition to managing and working the Pontious Farm.

• appletreedevelopment.com - After spending 30 years traveling the globe in the telecom industry, Rick switched to real estate development in 2002. Check out AppleTree, Rick's latest project in beautiful Monticello, Illinois.

• Rick is also a distributor for air and water purification solutions, as well as personal care, nutrition, herbal, and household products.

• Nancee Moster Enterprises, Inc. - Nancee is an information analyst, designer, and developer with 25+ years experience designing, developing, and delivering online, offline, and web-based training, technical writing, and marketing communication solutions on time, within budget, and to specification. (The PDF looks a little funny because it's designed for print on fancy, four-panel paper stock.)
