Agchat Foundation Launches Thanksgiving #Foodthanks Social Media Campaign

This Thanksgiving the AgChat Foundation has launched foodthanks.com and is asking people to thank those who help to grow and provide our food. The site offers five simple tips for how to show #foodthanks, which includes things like tweeting with the hashtag #foodthanks, blogging about the topic, and sharing links on the Facebook.

The AgChat Foundation teaches “agvocates” how to use social media tools such Twitter, Facebook, blogs, YouTube, LinkedIn and other social media to engage with the public and tell their stories.

According to AgChat Foundation President Jeff Fowle, the goal of the campaign:

“Our goal with the #foodthanks campaign is to provide tools and inspiration for spreading personal expressions of gratitude beyond the family table to that extended circle of friends and family in our social media networks.”
