On Wednesday, the SC Poultry Federation once again participated in "A SC Taste", on the statehouse grounds. This annual event is held every May to bring awareness and attention to the commodities and countless food products produced here in South Carolina, to the members of the general assembly. As always, we had a great turnout, 24 different exhibits fed over 500 guests.
On another note, Tuesday before the event, SCPF staff delivered canvas tote bags filled with kitchen implements to each senator and house member. The bags and kitchen tools all said, "May is National Egg Month", or "The Incredible Edible Egg", along with an insert reminding them that poultry in SC is the largest animal agriculture business. Staying visible and having a presence with our state's lawmakers is extremely important. If you have the opportunity to speak with the members, remind them that we need them in our corner, fighting for SC's poultry industry and agriculture.
