Food Day is an annual event celebrated nationwide with emphasis on reducing hunger and providing affordable food by promoting organic, environmentally sustainable farming while supporting fair working conditions for workers.

The newly opened San Diego Public Market will also be hosting a Food Day event on Oct. 24 in Logan Heights with Network for a Healthy California. There will be nutritional education events and physical activities for all ages. Network aims to provide families of all incomes with healthy and affordable food.
