WHITTINGTON, IL (KFVS) - The Illinois Department of Agriculture will be unveiling a new Illinois Product logo on July 19 as part of the Buy Illinois Challenge.
The challenge was designed to encourage every Illinois household to put aside at least $10 of their weekly grocery budget to spend on Illinois products. The department says this challenge could potentially generate $2.4 million in revenue for the state.
Many Southern Illinois Wineries along with Illinois Department of Agriculture Acting Director Robert Flider will be on hand at the July 19 unveiling to be held at the Pheasant Hollow Winery in Whittington, Ill.
Residents of Illinois can log onto www.buyillinoischallenge.com to pledge themselves to the challenge.
