Community Food Advocates and the Nashville Farmers’ Market are hosting Nashville’s first annual
“Food Day” celebration.
Food Day is a national effort that seeks to bring together Americans
from all walks of life to push for healthy, affordable food produced in a
sustainable, humane way.
As part of the Food Day festivities, we need your nominations for Nashville's
"Real Food Hall of Fame". The Hall of Fame will recognize Nashville businesses and people that
exemplify what it means to end hunger and work for a healthy, just and sustainable food system.
Send nominations and 3-5 sentences detailing why they deserve this award to
