This month North Dakota is in the spotlight.
From Wal-Mart Facts:
Wal-Mart Stores announced today that North Dakota-based Tri-Campbell will be showcased during the month of February in conjunction with the company’s Salute to America’s Farmers program. Salute to America’s Farmers, launched in September, is a year-long campaign to spotlight Wal-Mart’s commitment to purchase from local growers for distribution to stores in their areas in support of locally grown agricultural products. Throughout the next several weeks, Tri-Campbell Farms will team with Wal-Mart Stores to provide homegrown potatoes to numerous Wal-Mart Supercenters and Neighborhood Markets in the region and provide visibility to the company’s commitment to North Dakota agriculture and growers around the country.
Oh, do you want to read a good book about Wal-Mart? Try this one, here. I'm halfway through it. I saw one of the authors, Richard Vedder, on Fox's Cost of Freedom a couple of weeks ago. The man was trying to make some points, and that yipping Deaniac, Chris Kofinis of Wake Up Wal-Mart, tried to shout the man down.
Hat tip to Marshall Manson of Edelman Public Relations for the North Dakota story.
