Slow Food Asheville

Food is part of our cultural identity, from rare animal breeds to heirloom varieties of fruits and vegetables... from handcrafted wine and beer to farmhouse cheeses and other artisanal products. Slow Food works to preserve this identity, and to keep the connection between the food we eat and the land it comes from.

Slow Food is an educational organization dedicated to preserving food traditions, celebrating the pleasures of the table, and embracing a slower, more harmonious rhythm of life.

Our Goals

• The stewardship of the land and ecologically sound food production
• The revival of the kitchen and the table as centers of pleasure, culture, and community
• The invigoration and proliferation of regional, seasonal culinary traditions
