Have You Signed Up to Donate Product During Whole Grains Month in September?

Many Ways to Celebrate Whole Grains Month in September!

Whole Grains Month is the perfect time to plan a big celebration of all your favorite whole grain foods and products. Every year our members and partners join us online throughout September to exchange ideas, share recipes, and highlight just how delicious whole grains are. Check out our Whole Grains Month media toolkit to get started planning your social media messaging.

Go one step further than social media alone and get involved with our whole grain giveaway! We're inviting our members to donate cases of whole grain product to a winning food bank or other food-related charity chosen at the end of the month by our Whole Grains Month contest winners. We'll be spotlighting the charitable efforts of our WGC member companies while we work to promote whole grain consumption nationwide.

If you'd like to get your company involved (and receive extra publicity and social media attention as we promote the event all month long) email Caroline@OldwaysPT.org with the following information:

How many cases of product you’d like to donate (in past years members have contributed anywhere between 1-60 cases of product, with the average being about 4-5 cases)
What type of product you’d like to donate (e.g. two cases of oat & honey granola and three cases of whole grain crackers)
The names of your company’s social media accounts so that we can tag you and give your donation lots of visibility
Optionally, send us a photo of the product you’re donating so we may be able to include it in marketing materials or a blog post highlighting the event

Attend Our WG Month Photography Webinar, Sept 8 @2pm ET

We eat with our eyes first, so food photos need to be enticing and scroll-stopping to break through. In this session, experts will share best practices throughout the entire styling, photographing, and editing process using challenging-to-capture whole grain foods as a case study. At the end of the webinar, we’ll share how you can put your new food photography skills into practice throughout Whole Grains Month in September for a chance to win prizes.
