SPRINGFIELD, Ill. – In an effort to increase awareness about Illinois food products and businesses this holiday season, the Illinois Department of Agriculture will hold its first ever 12 Days of Christmas Contest from Dec. 14 - 25. A winner will be selected randomly each day from the Department of Agriculture’s Facebook and Twitter fans. Winners will receive an Illinois product and an assortment of cooking supplies donated by the American Egg Board.
