Community Potluck
To Discuss the Future of Our Slow Food Chapter
Welcome to Slow Food Snoqualmie Valley
Slow Food is a way of living and a way of eating. It is a global, grassroots movement that started over twenty years ago in Italy with currently thousands of members around the world that link the pleasure of food with a commitment to community and the environment. Slow Food Snoqualmie Valley’s mission as a non-profit is to celebrate community on the farm, in the kitchen & at the table and to bring awareness of our great fortune to be able to enjoy local and seasonal food for a healthier community. The local chapter, called a ‘convivium’, was founded in the summer of 2008 and has a growing support throughout the Valley and in nearby communities.
ON THE FARM
Support our local producers through the Farmers Markets, farm stands and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). BUY LOCAL! Encourage everyone to enjoy growing their own food with community gardens, kitchen gardens, and the gardener’s network.
IN THE KITCHEN
Promote opportunities to learn how to prepare foods emphasizing the importance of learning ‘old skills for a new time’. Offer useful resources celebrating seasonal produce including family-friendly recipes and ways to preserve the harvest.
AT THE TABLE
Provide an open forum for people, food and ideas to come together to forward the Slow Food movement in our Valley. Host potlucks and support local food events to make the connection between food and community.
