Slow Food Minnesota

Slow Food Minnesota is a subordinate chapter of Slow Food USA, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. All contributions are tax deductible. Slow Food Minnesota has no paid staff. Ninety-five percent of the proceeds from our events are used to support local programs and those of Slow Food USA and Slow Food International.

Our gatherings focus on food and always have an educational component. They provide an opportunity for conversation with others who are interested in sustainably produced food. Our members are farmers, home cooks, vintners, chefs, wine lovers, moms and dads, grocers, brewers, writers, nutritionists, students, bakers, miscellaneous foodies . . . united in our concern about the quality of what we eat.

Most events are moderately priced, but we occasionally hold a fundraiser with a higher ticket price. Some previous events have benefited victims of the August 2007 floods in southeastern Minnesota, a farm family struck by arson and a St. Paul foodshelf. Through our fundraising efforts, we are able to offer our Terra Madre delegates grants for travel to Turin, Italy. We also help delegates from the Third World.
