County pork groups that donated pork to their local food pantries during late winter and early spring in 2023 were each reimbursed up to $1000 for that activity. Forty counties participated, donating bacon, brats, chops, ground pork, hams, loins, roasts, sausage, and tenderloins to help local families add protein to their diets.
Be on the lookout for the 2024 timeline for this activity!
