Donate food and save at the Ohio State Fair

Posted on 7:21 AM by Unknown
It's Kroger Feeds Ohio Day! Bring two canned food items per person to the Fair today and receive a voucher good for $3 admission before 4 pm. 

All food donated on Kroger Feeds Ohio Day will go to the Mid-Ohio Foodbank and will benefit the numerous central Ohioans who suffer from hunger every day.

Along with hundreds of other state and county fairs in the nation, the Ohio State Fair is proud to be working with the International Association of Fairs and Festivals (IAFE) as a part of a national food drive. IAFE's Festivals' campaign, called "Dream Big," encourages the participation of food drives and collect 20 million pounds of food. 

Kroger Feeds Ohio Day isn't the only  the Ohio Poultry Association has contributed to help fight against hunger. Ohio egg farmers across the state donated approximately 766,800 eggs to hunger relief organizations in May. The giving doesn't stop there; for the fourth year, the Ohio Poultry Association will donate one dozen eggs to the Mid-Ohio Foodbank for every kid’s meal that is purchased at the poultry booth in the Taste of Ohio CafĂ©.


Raid your pantry and head out to the Ohio State Fair today, before 4 pm to save!
