Plains
Plains is a Clark Fork River town in Sanders County, Montana, set in a wide valley once known as Wild Horse Plains, with a mild banana-belt climate, ranching and timber roots, and the Clark Fork Valley Hospital serving the area. Its economy runs on agriculture, timber and wood products, healthcare, and the businesses serving the valley. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for Plains's ranch, timber, healthcare, and local businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
