Let’s All Be Certified

Ambassadors

The holidays are upon us,and Christmas is justa few days away. Nobetter t ime to become aCertified Ambassador. Notto be confused with thenewest distinguished ChefAmbassadors featuredin this issue, of course.But maybe we can beinspired by their storiesand accomplishments, thismost festive t ime ofyear.

I’ve said many times thatall of us have a part to playin supporting agriculture inSouth Carolina. What ourfarmers grow makes adifference for consumers,and what consumers chooseto purchase makes a bigimpact for our farmers.Sounds simple, but buyingand eating Certif iedSC Grown produce andproducts is one of thebest ways to support ourhardworking farmers.

Typically, ambassadorslike our own Nikki Haleyat the UN are off icialrepresentatives of aparticular place, businessor organization. Our ChefAmbassadors, for example,wil l represent SouthCarolina at many eventsthroughout the regionthrough the coming year.The good news is, youdon’t have to go ontour and give formalspeeches to be anambassador of Certified SCGrown.
