Portage
Portage is a small far-north agriculture town in Box Elder County, Utah near the Idaho line in the upper Bear River country, a quiet farming and ranching community in the Newe (Northwestern Shoshone) homeland near the historic Washakie area. Its life runs on agriculture and farming, ranching and dairy, home services and trades, and the small businesses serving a northern community. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the Portage area's farm, ranch, 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.
