Culver’s “Scoops of Thanks Day” on May 5th raised $56,500 by selling more than 48,000 scoops of custard on behalf of agriculture education.  Guests were offered a free scoop of custard for a $1 donation to their FFA or other local agricultural organization.

“Our guests appreciate the hard work farmers put into producing our nation’s food as much as we do,” said David Stidham, vice president of marketing for Culver’s. “We’re glad to be able to set aside a day when the entire Culver’s community can show their gratitude and make a contribution to support the next generation of farmers.”

Scoops of Thanks Day is just one part of Culver’s Thank You Farmers program.  The company has recognized the work and commitment of the people who feed the nation by raising almost one million dollars to support the National FFA Organization and Foundation, local chapters and other ag organizations.
