Our Mission..
Harvest Masters is a mobile trimming company serving commercial marijuana farms in Oregon and
California. Utilizing state of the art machinery and years of experience Harvest Masters gets the job
done quickly and efficiently thus providing clients the ability to reach market before the competition.
We greatly reduce the burden of managing large amounts of labor by applying mechanization to
harvest methods. Harvest Masters processes save time, money, and are gentle on buds.
Our Vision...
Harvest Masters provides industry leading harvest solutions for the modern farmer. As the industry
moves toward commercialization, the processes of growing and harvesting become more complex.
We help farmers reduce labor costs and realize economies of scale. Harvest Masters is constantly
researching, testing, and implementing the latest technology and processes for harvesting
marijuana. We take great pride in our work because our clients take great pride in theirs. Together,
we make harvesting enjoyable.

Size of body copy depends on the font, but generally 10-point or 11-point font is the standard. In the
majority of EU countries 12-point is the minimum text size for main body text.
Copy should be fully justified with no gaps at the beginning or end of individual lines of text to give a
story a jagged appearance (in other words, not left-justified or right-justified, but type that is flush
both left and right).
Until recently serif fonts, with small finishing strokes appended to each character (more closely
resembling handwriting), were the established norm for the body text in print publications. However
this has changed with the prevalence of sans-serif fonts such as helvetica and centry gothic in
web-based content.
Use a larger, bolder version of the body typefont for headlines, or a bold sans serif typefont. Also
consider using CAPS for design impact. Titles should be written using title formatting all conjunctions
are lower case, primary words are uppercase for example: "general style guidelines for print media"
will become, "General Style Guidelines for Print Media".
Use sans serif type when characters must be smaller than 10 points or for items that include a lot of
numerals (e.g., for captions, page numbering and footers, charts, tables, lists and formulas).
Leading, or line spacing, refers to the distance between lines of type. Generally speaking, you need at
least two points of leading. Leading is expressed as 10/12, or “ten on twelve” for example, which is the
type size with two points of leading.

signboard
Signage is integral to brand identity. It helps to enforce that strong statement about what an
organisation stands for, how it should be perceived, what it represents. Corporate signs
welcome and instruct, direct and protect, but they’re also instrumental in presenting that
vital, positive first impression.
From typeface and colour to style and size, these are the elements that express an
organisation’s identity, projecting qualities such as dynamism, pride, integrity or
professionalism.

Photography is one of the most important elements in an advertising
campaign. The imagery is the first and the last thing people remember
in an ad. In today’s age of branding and identity, advertising
photography does more than simply sell a product; it also sells the
personality of the brand.

website
design
The overall design direction for Harvest Masters can be summed up in one word — TRUST. We
invite site visitors to trust us from the moment they see the first screen until the moment they
leave the site from an interior page. This underlying principle determines the look, feel, voice, and
overall brand for the site.
Consumer experience
In order to promote a positive user experience, we maintain ease of use throughout the site. All
content must be clear, concise, and easily accessible. Likewise, site visitors are guided through
clutter-fee and simplified processes when using Marketplace applications and tools.

design
elements
As the majority of icons are used at two specific sizes online (24px and 36px), they are designed and
optimized according to their respective grids. Our icons are optically balanced in size and visual style.
Here is a breakdown of basic values and sizes:
Icons intended for use in print or at larger sizes use the 36-unit grid, and are pixel-optimized at their
final size. The icon bounds should be approximately 50% of the size of the container – e.g. 100px
container = 50px bounds, 1” container = 0.5” bounds.
Stylistically, our icons should be:
Solid-filled, not stroked
Geometric, not illustrative
Simple, not overly detailed
