Editor's note: New Canaan HamletHub editor, Rachel Lampen is at the heart of Connecticut's Food Revolution. Lampen, who launched New Canaan's Food Revolution in 2014, is busy preparing for this year's - one that will attract foodies near and far to downtown New Canaan on Saturday, May 16. Thank you for all you are doing to help kids expand their food horizons and tantalize their developing tastebuds! HamletHub is proud to sponsor this community event.


MARK YOUR CALENDARS for a community foodie event like no other...New Canaan Food Revolution is planned for Saturday, May 16 from 10:00 am to Noon.

Food Revolution Day, launched in 2012, is right at the heart of all the work Jamie and the Jamie Oliver Food Foundation do to engage and inspire people of all ages to learn about food and how to cook it.

With overweight and obesity statistics increasing at an alarming rate, and preventable diet-related disease claiming more lives earlier than ever before, it has never been more important to educate children about food, where it comes from and how it affects their bodies. Food Revolution Day is about getting kids food smart and setting them up for a long, healthy life.

More than 1,300 ambassadors in more than 120 countries are currently planning events, both big and small. With only 6 Ambassadors representing Connecticut, New Canaan HamletHub editor, Rachel Lampen explains, "Last year the Children's Food Revolution Bravery Passport received more than 350 registrations. The event, which involved walking on a food trail around New Canaan, attracted kids and parents from all over sampling new and different foods.

Sponsored by HamletHub, put Saturday, May 16th from 10.00am - 12.00pm on your calendar! There will be food, music and entertainment.
