In this series, I provide an overview of the food celebrations and holidays in the month, so you can celebrate! For me, this list is helpful for menu planning or throwing themed dinners. These food holidays are a great way to have a themed meal and invite people over to your home.
I feel like inviting people into your home is a great way to build community. There's something about breaking bread, cooking, sharing recipes, and food that sparks conversation. I love talking and celebrating around a table. So, here are some food celebrations in July.
July has several celebrations throughout the month. July is:
- National Picnic Month
- National Baked Bean Month
- National Culinary Arts Month
- National Hot Dog Month
- National Ice Cream Month
There are also many celebrations on days throughout July.

- July 7 is National Macaroni Day
- July 9 is National Sugar Cookie Day
- July 10 is "Pick Blueberries' Day
