Strathmore Seed is holding its annual charity golf tournament, Holes for Hunger. 

The tournament is being hosted at the Strathmore Golf Club on Wednesday (July 9) with an 11:30 a.m. check-in time. 

Tee-off for the shotgun-style tournament is scheduled for 1 p.m.

The $130 entry fee, or $500 for four players, includes an 18-hole round with a cart and dinner in the evening.  

This year's tournament will raise funds in support of the Wheatland Food Bank, with 100 per cent of the proceeds going directly to the organization.

"The event has it all—golf, dinner, social, and, of course, prizes," said Blair Peregrym, chief executive officer of Strathmore Seed.

Strathmore Seed has been a part of the agriculture industry since 1956. its current facility, built in 2014, continues to serve the region's farming community.

"Last year, our annual golf tournament raised $18,000 for the Wheatland Hospice Centre," said Peregrym.

In addition to the tournament, Strathmore Seed supports several organizations, including the Lions Club, 4-H, and local sports teams.
