NC Pork Members
New database information
The NC Pork Council recently implemented a new membership databse. This will allow you to log in and manage your information and preferences and register for events. If you are already a member, you received your login information by email (sent Sept. 14) or by mail (sent in late September). Please use this information to log into your account and review your information – especially your email address. This is how you will receive your voting link. If we do not have an email address for you, a placeholder email was used to create your acccount. We cannot reach you via this address. If you do not have your login information, contact Terri or Amy.
If you are not a member, you can sign up to be a member. Membership is free, but subject to approval. If you are eligible and complete your application by Dec. 8, you will receive a ballot.

Bacon and Bourbon
Don’t miss out on the tastiest meal of the year. Five delicious bacon-themed courses paired with five Sazerac-branded bourbons. Plus a Sazerac expert will be there to discuss the intricacies of each pour. If you like bourbon – or bacon – you’re not going to want to miss this!
Individual tickets are $125 and tables of 8 are $1,000.
Bacon and Bourbon is a fundraiser for non-checkoff and non-political programs. We welcome the use of corporate credit cards to purchase tickets and/or tables for this event.
Bacon and select pork products provided by Villari Foods.
