John Deere and Major League Baseball celebrate the connection between agriculture, community, and America’s pastime.
Major League Baseball today named John Deere (NYSE: DE) as the presenting sponsor of this year’s MLB at Field of Dreams game between the Minnesota Twins and Philadelphia Phillies on August 13, helping bring to life one of baseball’s most meaningful celebrations of farming communities and America’s pastime.
In collaboration with MLB Together, MLB’s community outreach platform, John Deere and MLB will co-host a volunteer meal-packing event that brings together employees, dealers and customers of John Deere to pack approximately 260,000 meals for families across Iowa with River Bend Food Bank.
While volunteers make an impact locally, the John Deere Foundation’s commitment extends beyond Iowa through Big Hits. Bigger Impact., a campaign that will donate one million meals to Feeding America®. Building on efforts during MLB All-Star Week and continuing through the upcoming MLB at Field of Dreams game, the campaign honors the work of farmers while helping provide meals to families across the country.
As presenting sponsor, John Deere will be integrated throughout the MLB at Field of Dreams game experience, from the event’s national campaigns and game broadcast to immersive fan experiences onsite.
