Slow Food

I had heard of the "slow food" movement before but recently read an article about it. I thought it was worth taking some time to look into it. Slow Food is a grassroots organization which was started in Italy. It is now a international movement. The mission of Slow Food is to promote good, clean and fair food for all. They stress food which is grown locally, is seasonal and grown with the environment in mind. The reason the name Slow Food was chosen is to get people thinking the opposite of fast food. If you would like to learn more about this movement you can follow this link to their website. Slow Food 

This movement makes sense in many ways. It brings together many things that other groups are doing. I enjoy the emphasis on organically grown local food that is eaten in season. Take a few minutes when you get a chance and get to know some of the premises behind this movement.
