What is Slow Food?

Join us for this in-person presentation about the global Slow Food movement that began in Italy in 1986 and is now in over 160 countries worldwide including more than 150 in the US. The Slow Food philosophy and mission are focused on the belief that everyone has the right to good, clean, fair food, good for the people who eat it, good for the people who grow it, and good for the planet. Our local chapter, Slow Food Utah was founded in 2001 and supports this mission through its educational programs and events and through its micro grant program, which funds projects and farmers throughout the states. Slow Food is about eating locally and seasonally, supporting biodiversity in food and farming, and slowing down to share a meal with friends and family. Come taste some samples of local food and find out more about the Slow Food mission and how you can get involved.
