Recent Marketing Projects for Horst Ag Supply
By Vanderbilt Creek Marketing Agency
At Vanderbilt Creek Marketing, we’ve had the privilege of supporting Horst Ag Supply, a long-trusted agricultural dealer specializing in Restora Life minerals and Balanced Biologics fertilizers across Upstate NY and the Finger Lakes. Over the past few months, we’ve partnered with owner Kenneth Horst to elevate the brand’s visibility, modernize its marketing tools, and give customers easier access to the products they rely on.
Here’s a look at some of the major projects we’ve completed — and how they’re helping Horst Ag Supply grow.
1. A Clean, Functional Website Built for Farmers
Horst Ag Supply needed a website that was simple, trustworthy, and informative — something that clearly reflects the values of the agricultural community.
We created a new website, church compliant, that includes:
Clear navigation for minerals, fertilizers, and soil health products
Product descriptions for Restora Life Minerals & Balanced Biologics
A user-friendly lead form for inquiries
Mobile-optimized design for farmers on the go
Clean branding and messaging tailored to Kenneth’s values: honesty, transparency, and service
The website ensures customers can quickly understand what Horst Ag Supply offers and how these products support healthier soil and stronger yields.
2. Print Ads Designed for Local Farmers
Print advertising remains extremely effective in agricultural markets — and for Horst Ag Supply, the goal was to create ads that work in multiple publication types and appeal to both small and large farms.
Recent ads we designed include:
Seasonal fertilizer promotions
Mineral product spotlights
Simple, bold layouts optimized for farm publications
Messaging tailored to farmers who value natural, biologically active soil solutions
The focus has been on keeping text minimal, strong, and clear — and making sure the ads speak directly to the needs of real farms in our region.
3. The 2025 Horst Ag Supply Calendar Project
One of our favorite projects has been the Horst Ag Supply yearly calendar, created to showcase:
Products and their benefits month-by-month
Seasonal reminders for soil sampling, fertilizer application, livestock supplements, etc.
Clean design, large readable dates, and practical use for farm offices and barns
Branding that keeps Horst Ag Supply top-of-mind all year long
The calendar is both a marketing tool and a relationship builder — something useful that also strengthens the connection with local farmers and customers.
4. Strengthening Brand Identity Across All Touchpoints
Across the website, ads, and printed materials, our goal has been consistency. We’ve helped Horst Ag Supply develop:
A clearer brand voice
Professional visual consistency
A marketing presence that reflects reliability and long-standing community trust
Materials that align with the plain community values and agricultural principles many of Kenneth’s customers hold
Whether a farmer sees the website, the ad, or the calendar — the message feels aligned and authentic.
Working with Kenneth has been an honor, and we look forward to helping more growers discover the products that make a real difference in soil health and farm performance.
If your agricultural business needs a strategic, brand-aligned marketing upgrade, Vanderbilt Creek Marketing is here to help you grow — just like we’ve helped Horst Ag Supply.
