Joining the Slow Food movement is a personal statement reflecting a philosophy toward food, cooking and the pleasures of the table. Please meet some of the people who are involved at a local level:

The aim of the Slow Food movement is to counter the standardization of taste and manipulation of consumers around the world. Integrating this philosophy in a busy family life involves a bit of planning, enough freezer space to store meals prepared from local ingredients and a desire not only to teach our kids where our food comes from, but the joy of cooking and sharing meals with the people you love.
