Sweet Grown Alabama, the state’s agricultural branding program, is welcoming PowerSouth Energy as a founding member of the nonprofit organization.
“Sweet Grown Alabama’s impact on Alabama farmers and communities is significant,” said Horace Horn, PowerSouth’s Vice President of External Affairs and Sweet Grown Alabama Board Member. “The organization connects consumers to locally grown products, which helps support Alabama’s agriculture sector — a crucial part of the state’s economy. PowerSouth Energy is proud to partner with an organization that shares a common goal of community development and support.”
PowerSouth’s support will help Sweet Grown Alabama transition into the second year of program activities. Funds will be used to encourage purchasing of locally grown products through traditional and digital marketing. Consumers can search for a variety of locally grown products at SweetGrownAlabama.org.
“PowerSouth Energy is a valued partner of Sweet Grown Alabama,” Sweet Grown Alabama Director Ellie Watson said. “This support of Sweet Grown Alabama and our state’s farmers further demonstrates PowerSouth’s lasting impact on Alabama as a whole. Both PowerSouth’s financial support and Mr. Horn’s service on our Board of Directors will help ensure success for Sweet Grown Alabama for many years.”
With this commitment, PowerSouth becomes the ninth founding member supporter of Sweet Grown Alabama. The program represents more than 170 farmer, restaurant, market and business members across the state who play a role in bringing local products to Alabama consumers.
