Press Release

International Kitchen Garden Day

A Global Celebration of the Most Local of Foods

28 August 2005

Kitchen Garden Day is an annual, decentralized celebration of delicious foods produced on a human scale. It is an opportunity for people around the world to gather in their gardens with friends, family, and members of their local communities to enjoy the multiple pleasures and benefits of locally-grown, hand-made, organic foods.

Kitchen Garden Day is coordinated by Kitchen Gardeners International (KGI), a 501c3 nonprofit organization based in the US with friends and supporters in over 40 countries. KGI's mission is to celebrate home-grown, home-cooked foods in their many international forms and to promote their role in bringing about a healthier, more sustainable, and more pleasurable food system.

"With gas prices hovering at record highs and consumer confidence in industrial, processed foods at an all-time low, the case for eating foods of local and known origin has never been stronger," says Roger Doiron, founder of KGI. "Kitchen Garden Day is about celebrating the bounty and diversity of delicious foods coming from our own backyards, both literally and figuratively."
