When it comes to fresh produce, my go to place, is my local Publix. During this fall season not only can we enjoy fresh produce, but each purchase will making a difference for our local families. Your help counts too. By purchasing select local produce at your local Publix you will be automatically making a donation to Feeding America. Hurry, because this opportunity to make a difference runs from September 15 through October 26.
Once you are in Publix you will find in-store displays and signage, featuring the Produce for Kids® and Feeding America logo will be displayed in Publix produce departments next to products supporting the campaign. Here are the produce sponsors supporting the campaign.
Produce for Kids® is dedicated to educating families on the benefits of healthy eating, providing simple meal solutions and raising money for children’s non-profit organizations. Last year’s campaign raised more than $206,000, which supplied 2,275,295 meals to families in need through Feeding America. I am very proud to be able to help and spread the word about the amazing job they are doing for our local families. When I go shopping for my produce I enjoy knowing that I’m giving back and you can too.
