Celebrate Food Day!

Monday, October 24, 2011, New York, NY: Today a diverse range of organizations, public officials, and Americans from all walks of life are celebrating Food Day-a nationwide grassroots mobilization that encourages Americans to eat healthy, delicious food grown in a sustainable and humane way and to advocate for smarter food policies. Spearheaded by the Center for Science in the Public Interest, Food Day is being observed in all 50 states with more than 2,000 events from coast to coast.

Join the movement yourself by choosing to make one positive change in your own diet today. Find out more about what it means to "eat real" food and WHY it is so important that we each join this movement, by visiting the Food Day website and reading about their 6 goals for how to transform the American diet, one plate and one person at a time. This day celebrates so many things and is connected to so many of the projects that our own work is touched by and connects with that we are thrilled to see it gain momentum. Also at their website you can find local events including several right here in New York City to attend.
