Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Night

August 8th is National Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Night, according to allrecipes.com . The holiday was established by Pennsylvanian Tom Roy to encourage sharing of this prolific vegetable. Any hobby farmer or home gardener who has grown zucchini understands why this holiday was established.

The website http://allrecipes.com/HowTo/Sneak-Some-Zucchini-Onto-Your-Neighbors-Porch-Night/Detail.aspx?ARBMID=1174&ARFMTID=1 has a tongue-in-cheek list of unendorsed activities to engage in if you wish to celebrate this day.

By the way, allrecipes.com is an excellent website for food fans and cooking enthusiasts. Their email newsletter is an excellent source of food news and recipes. That's how I found out about this important food holiday.
