Bayer and Luke Bryan launched a campaign that will work diligently to expand access to food and nutrition in rural America in 2026.
The partnership kicked off in California with a community food drive with Walmart and will see Bayer donating one-million meals through Feeding America. The initiative comes as part of Bayer's continued push to expand food access in communities that are underserved. Bayer will also be sponsoring the Luke Bryan Farm Tour to further promote its food scarcity-centric campaign.
Bryan himself commented on the partnership saying, "Farm Tour has always been about showing up for the communities and farmers that feed this country. Being on working farms, alongside farmers and their families, reminds you what really matters – and partnering with folks like Bayer and Feeding America who share that respect for agriculture makes those nights even more meaningful.”
