Proceeds from this auction will benefit the Grow for Good Campaign:
THE FACTS:
• America loses 2 acres of farmland every minute to commercial and residential development and poor food production.
• Our food travels on average 2,000 miles from the farm to our plate, causing a toll on the environment.
• Industrial agricultural systems emphasize chemical solutions (pesticides, fertilizers, and hormones) to biological problems that compromise the quality, taste, freshness and nutritional value of our food.
• To survive and prosper, local farms must have access to a diverse local distribution model and to sustainable agriculture techniques and technologies.
Welcome to FOOD & WINE's Grow for Good Online Auction!
A robust food and wine industry begins at the farm...that's why FOOD & WINE has launched Grow for Good, a national campaign to raise public awareness and support for charitable initiatives aimed at increasing consumer access to locally- and sustainably-grown foods.
For Grow for Good's second year, FOOD & WINE has selected Wholesome Wave Foundation as its 2008 beneficiary and will direct campaign efforts toward the three key initiatives: Wholesome Wave Farmer's Market Nutrition Program, Green Wave Farm-to-College Program and the Sustainable Mentorship initiative.
Join our efforts to help expand Wholesome Wave by participating in the FOOD & WINE Grow for Good online auction. Bid on luxury goods and one-of-a-kind culinary experiences.
BIDDING CLOSES FRIDAY, JUNE 27 at 4PM!
