Get ready for Whole Grains Month 2023!

Summer has just begun, but here at the Whole Grains Council we're already thinking about September, when we celebrate Whole Grains Month. We're looking forward to a month full of whole grain engagement, giveaways, and education, and as always we will be providing our members with support in the form of promotional opportunities, free social media graphics, and more.

Last year's Whole Grains Month was a great success, thanks in large part to the generous donations of our members. Your products added up to over 100 cases of nutritious, whole-grain foods donated to the winner of our charity giveaway, Mission Oak Cliff. We also saw fantastic consumer participation, with participants taking part in our daily whole grain challenges on social media.

Our plans for Whole Grains Month 2023 are shaping up to be very exciting indeed. We’ll be encouraging consumers to expand their whole grain horizons and try products and recipes that are new to them. To help encourage this exploration, we’ll be running a virtual Bingo contest and we’ll be offering our members the opportunity to position their delicious whole grain products as the prizes! There will be more details coming soon, so keep an eye on your inboxes.

In need of some whole grain content for your site? We encourage all WGC members to draw on the whole grain resources and information available on the WGC website. If you’d like to share one of our graphics or handouts, just contact us and tell us what you’d like to reproduce and we’ll get back to you quickly with the appropriate permissions/files.
