The American Farm Bureau is celebrating February 20-26, 2011, as Food Check-Out Week.

In addition to helping consumers find solutions to eating healthy on a stretched budget, the Farm Bureau program also notes the importance that America’s farmers and ranchers are committed to producing safe, abundant and healthy food.

For the past several years, the Tennessee Farm Bureau Women’s Committees donate hundreds of dollars of food to each of the five Ronald McDonald houses in Tennessee. The Ronald McDonald House provides a “home-away-from-home” for the families of seriously ill children receiving medical treatment.

Follow the hashtag #FCOW on Twitter to learn more about Food Check-Out Week, and connect on Facebook – for every fan, Farm Bureau will donate $1 to Ronald McDonald House.
