Support Farmers on Giving Tuesday
Tuesday December 3rd is Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving where we come together and support the causes that mean the most to us.
Giving Tuesday, which takes place right after Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, is a time to take a break from excessive consumerism and focus on giving to those who need it most.
This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to support farmers who were devastated by Hurricane Helene. Having access to fresh, locally-grown food is important to everyone. Let’s band together to protect this important industry.
Any donation amount, no matter how small, helps and also sends a powerful message to our Georgia farmers that their community has their back in their time of need
