Celebrate Whole Grains Month in September
Join us as we reveal a new Whole Grain Deal of the Day throughout the month of 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. We hope you’ll join the party this September!
Look for our Whole Grain Deal of the Day
Throughout September, we’ll feature new whole grain “Deal of the Day” offerings from WGC member companies who have volunteered to partner with us for Whole Grains Month. Each day we’ll reveal a new discount, coupon, or social media contest featuring deliciously whole grain goodies, and we’ll give you details about how to participate and take advantage of the deal. Follow us on social media (Facebook, Twitter, & Instagram) and use the #WholeGrainsMonth hashtag to connect with us.
