NEW Whole Grain Webinar Series Launching!

September WGC Conference in Brazil Postponed

We appreciate everyone's understanding and kind feedback on our decision to postpone our Whole Grains Council Conference to 2021 in light of the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19. While we will miss seeing you in person this September, we invite you to engage with us online on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

The current global situation has, among so many other things, reminded us of the importance of community. We wanted to take a moment to express our thanks to you for being part of our community here at the WGC. Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Keep well and stay safe!

NEW Online Programming During COVID-19

To tide you over until the Whole Grains Conference, we're launching a new webinar series! Join us for Wheat Sensitivities: Sorting Fact from Fiction on 4/15 at 3pm ET with Dr. Lisa Kissing Kucek as she explains the differences between ancient, heritage, and modern wheats, their potential impacts on immunoreactive compounds, and how different processing methods may influence wheat sensitivities.

Next, mark your calendar for Transforming Your Taste Buds: How to Make Whole Grains the Food You Crave on 5/8 at 1pm ET with Dr. Keith Williams who will explain how food preferences are shaped by social and cultural cues. Join us as we learn how to apply these lessons to increase WG consumption across all age groups.

Last week, we took our annual celebration online for a Whole Grain Sampling Day unlike any other.
