Check Out Slow Food DC

The Board of Slow Food DC has been working hard on creating a new website, image and events to get DC more involved in the movement. Slow Food DC organizes dinners, tastings, tours, lectures, and picnics, exploring the richness of our area’s culinary heritage as well as food and drink from other cultures around the world. We hope you will come get more involved!

Please check out the new Snail of Approval:

The Slow Food DC Snail of Approvals aim to:

  • Recognize and celebrate eateries and artisans who contribute good, clean, fair food to our community.
  • Spread awareness of the Slow Food philosophy and the establishments that support it.

Each nomination will be examined by: the degree to which the establishment’s activities are congruent with the Slow Food DC mission in promoting and celebrating local, seasonal, and sustainable food sources; how much it is working to preserve the culinary traditions of the region’s ethnically and culturally diverse populations; and how it is supporting the right of all people to enjoy good, clean, fair food.

We are excited for the Pig Roast to Kick-Off the Slow Food DC “Snail of Approval” Program on October 3. Click here for more information.
