Oct 24th is Food Day

On Wednesday, October 24 the Food & Nutrition Programs will be sponsoring an on-campus event to celebrate National Food Day.  Food Day is a nationwide celebration and a movement toward more healthy, affordable, and sustainable food.  Food Day takes place annually on October 24 to address issues as varied as health and nutrition, hunger, agricultural policy, animal welfare, and farm worker justice. The ultimate goal of Food Day is to strengthen and unify the food movement in order to improve our nation’s food policies.  Food Day is important to our Program because it reflects our philosophy--No gimmicks, no miracles, just REAL facts:REAL FOOD keeps us healthy and tastes great.

Activities will be held throughout the day, culminating with our "Get Real Event" in the afternoon in the Atrium.  During the morning Food and Nutrition students will be popping in and out of classrooms to give students (and faculty) the important message to EAT REAL.  These REAL blasts will just be minutes long so we hope you will welcome the students in your classrooms.
