DESCRIPTION:National day of Action: Get Real Food into Schools\n12-3pm SF Civic Center 
 Plaza, potluck lunch\n\nSlow Food SF will be hosting our own Eat In on 
 September 7th to show support for the Time For Lunch Campaign and bring 
 awareness of the situation affecting school and students. Eat Ins will be 
 happening all over the country and we encourage everyone to attend or host 
 their own. We're going to need everybody's support! To learn how to host an 
 Eat In, click here. Please visit us on Facebook and Google groups to learn 
 more about our efforts.\n\nOur San Francisco chapter is working hard to 
 increase awareness about the Slow Food in Schools program and show support 
 for the re-authorization of the Child Nutrition Act, which would increase 
 standards for nutrition in school lunches. Our "Working Lunch" group is 
 actively making connections with other local and international 
 organizations such as Alice Waters' program, Edible Schoolyard, and The 
 Time for Lunch Campaign, one of the strongest efforts in the country 
 gathering support for the re-Authorization decision, which is to happen on 
 Sept. 30th. To sign an online petition and show your support, please visit 
 their website!\n\nWe've realized that the most important thing we can do as 
 a movement is reframe the way people think about food in school: not just 
 tinkering with the way food is processed but making sure our children eat 
 real food in school. Good food is a right, it tastes good, it's good for 
 children, it's good for families, it's good for the economy, it's good for 
 the planet, and it's good for America. Investing in child nutrition is an 
 investment our 
 future.\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------\nDescription\nSlow
