On National Food Day Global Growers will celebrate and build the movement towards healthy, affordable, and sustainable foods, by hosting a volunteer work day and pot-luck lunch at Decatur’s Kitchen Garden. The work day will run from 9am until noon on Wednesday, October 24^th, with a potluck lunch to follow. Activities for the day include fall gardening work: wood chipping, orchard cleanup, and other around-the-garden activities.

Celebrate Food Day by shopping at the Decatur Farmers Market on Wednesday, October 24th from 4-7pm. Grab some delicious picnic food and walk across the street to our Food Day Eat-In outside of the First Baptist Church and enjoy your fresh, local food with fellow Food Day supporters. Local musicians will provide entertainment.
