TUCSON, AZ and ASHEVILLE, NC--(Marketwire - 07/27/09) - Anything Brands Online, Inc. (Pinksheets:ANYT - News) announced today the launch of its new Anything Green Online (AGO) Division Consumer Direct Marketing Program for the Asheville, NC region. Thousands of children do not have enough food to eat in Western North Carolina. The AGO program was designed to address this problem. The goal is to enroll 10,000 households from Western North Carolina in this program, which can provide as much as 120,000 pounds of free produce per month to children in need.

To begin the program, all Asheville & western North Carolina area residents are invited to visit www.anythinggreenonline.com and participate in a survey. The survey will ask consumers to tell AGO the fruits and vegetables they usually purchase. AGO will then use this information to determine the produce items that will be made available for sale. As many local and regional growers as possible will be used as suppliers for this program.

Anything Green Online, working with local and national produce suppliers, is marketing discounted fresh conventional and organic produce direct to consumers, beginning in Asheville, North Carolina. The AGO program is offering savings of up to 20% on produce sales as compared to supermarket prices. In addition, AGO is donating 2 pounds of fresh produce to local Food Banks, for every 10 pounds sold to consumers. Consumers will order online at www.anythinggreenonline.com.

The new AGO program, which is based on the successful Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model, will sell fresh produce to consumers for approximately 20% less than supermarket prices. In addition, for every 10 pounds of produce sold, 2 pounds of first quality produce will be donated to local food banks that serve the needs of children and their families.

Anything Brands Online transportation and logistics units will coordinate and control the shipment of consolidated orders to predetermined drop sites including businesses, charities and homeless groups that will benefit as a result of consumer support of the program.

According to Tim Norton, Vice President of Web Based Operations, "Our goal is to deliver discounted fresh produce to 10,000 consumers in the Asheville area every week. By accomplishing this ambitious goal, we estimate our donations to be 120,000 pounds of produce to the local Food Bank every month. We've asked the Food Bank to direct the produce donations to children's programs, which they agreed to do."

Norton also stated, "During the current economic crisis in the USA, consumers are seeking every way possible to reduce their costs. The AGO program can accomplish this goal in North Carolina and other major population areas as the national program expands. It is a fact that many families are finding it difficult, if not impossible, to put food on the table every day for their children. The AGO program will help meet the needs of these families and their children."
