Organizers of the fourth annual Food Day expect thousands of events in all 50 states on or about October 24.
The day is an opportunity for schools, families and parents to celebrate, make changes in their diets and push for improved food policies.
Teachers College of Columbia University has created a unique school curriculum for Food Day, designed to teach children the importance of eating fresh food, cutting back on processed foods and advocating for a healthier community. All over the country, activities will take place designed to make children as familiar with vegetable peelers, cutting boards and mixing bowls as they are with phones and video games.
The Food Day website offers several ways for individuals to get involved. An interactive map allows searching or pinning local events. The site also offers a food literacy quiz, generates a letter grade for the health and environmental impact of a particular diet and has many other interesting features.
