About [Edit]
Slow Food U.S.A. is a non-profit educational organization
dedicated to supporting and celebrating the food traditions
of North America. From the spice of Cajun cooking to the purity
of the organic movement; from animal breeds and heirloom varieties
of fruits and vegetables to handcrafted wine and beer, farmhouse
cheeses and other artisanal products; these foods are a part
of our cultural identity.
Slow Food USA envisions a future food system that is based on the principles of high quality and taste, environmental sustainability, and social justice – in essence, a food system that is good, clean and fair. We seek to catalyze a broad cultural shift away from the destructive effects of an industrial food system and fast life; toward the regenerative cultural, social 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.
