Food Day October 24th!

"Food Day is a nationwide celebration
and a movement for healthy,
affordable, and sustainable food."

 Johnson & Wales is hosting an event for Food Day on October 24th 2013. We will have vendors from around the area come and share some samples and educate guests on healthy living. As a school, we will be giving tours of our edible garden which includes all types of plants that can be utilized in the kitchen such as fresh herbs, fruits, and vegetables rare and common.
My contribution to Food Day will be a YouTube video to promote Johnson & Wales, the students, and our commitment to a healthier and more sustainable food culture.

In my video I will be making a healthy seasonal salad and discussing the health benefits of each ingredient that comes from our edible garden.

For everyone here, you get a sneak peak of what the plate will look like at the end of my video.

This is a Radicchio Salad with Fresh Black Turkey Figs, Roasted Fennel Bulb and Macadamia Nuts, Creme Fraiche, Grapeseed Oil, Cracked Black Pepper and Fresh Fennel Sprigs.
