Bayer announced today a new campaign with Kroger to remind rural America to “Take Care, Now” and help alleviate care deserts in rural America, areas significantly impacted by both food insecurity and limited access to healthcare.

Bayer hosted a press conference Monday at the Northeast Community Fund Food Bank in Decatur, Illinois, to announce the campaign, which includes Kroger and Luke Bryan. Bayer and Kroger will support AgriSafe Network, an organization working to address health disparities in agricultural communities. Bayer is hosting its annual #HerestotheFarmer initiative benefiting Feeding America during the Luke Bryan Farm Tour. Bayer will help provide one million meals* to people experiencing hunger through the Feeding America network of food banks.
