Celebrate Whole Grains Month in September

Here at the Whole Grains Council, we adore whole grains all year round, and September’s month-long celebration of whole grains is the just the excuse we need to dial things up and have some fun. During Whole Grains Month there’s nothing we love more than watching folks fall head-over-heels for the unrivaled taste and overall goodness of whole grains. Thanks for making our 2018 celebration such a success! Check back next year for details about our 2019 celebration.
