This month is another 'full plate'.  As we indulge our culinary passion there are ample opportunities to support anti-hunger programs like City Harvest'sBid Against Hungeron the 18th.  Edible Manhattan hostsEdible Escape on October 19th pairing local and global destinations with food and drink.  And if you would rather listen to food than eat it, join Leonard Lopate for Lopate and Locavores on WNYC.
