Slow Food Greater Sarasota

Meet other locals who are interested in a food system that is based upon environmental sustainability and social justice - a food system that is good, clean and fair. We are part of an international movement that seeks to shift away from the destructive effects of an industrialized food system and fast life - toward the regenerative, cultural, social, ecological and economic benefits of a sustainable food system, regional food traditions, the pleasures of the table and a slower and more harmonious rhythm of life. To learn more about the mission and activities of the Slow Food organization, visit www.slowfoodusa.org.

Slow Food Greater Sarasota Chapter Board are:
Stacey Anderson, Ted Burt, Noreen Kinney, Robert Kluson, Phyllis Myers and Ellen Teeter
