Bake and Take Day

• Description
  
  The FAPC is teaming up with the Oklahoma Wheat Commission to promote Bake and Take Month during March and Bake and Take Day on March 28.
  
  The purpose of the Bake and Take promotion is to encourage participants to bake a product made from wheat and take it to a neighbor, friend or relative. This year the FAPC and Oklahoma Wheat Commission are working with Oklahoma 4-H to encourage 4-H clubs statewide to participate in Bake and Take Month.
  
  

  Bake and Take Day began in 1972 by the Kansas Wheathearts, an auxiliary organization of the Kansas Association of Wheat Growers, as a community service event to celebrate the wheat harvest in Sumner County, Kan.

  Even though the Kansas Wheathearts disbanded in 2001, Kansas Wheat continues these efforts today by partnering with the Wheat Foods Council and ACH Food Companies to extend the tradition to a broader audience and expand the program to Bake and Take Month.
