Winnipeg's Slow Food Movement is picking up pace.

After much anticipation, the very first official Slow Food Manitoba event is taking place!

Eat Slow presented by Slow Food Manitoba
Saturday June 20, 9 am, 613 St. Mary's Road

Please join us for Eat Slow, a one-day event dedicated to local, sustainable and fair food. We'll be starting at 9:00 am and will run through to the early afternoon.

Look forward to presentations on edible flowers, composting, fair trade, soil preparation and 100-mile cooking. Join us for a light lunch following the presentations featuring recipes from 100-mile chef, Karen Peters.

Also, take part in a canola oil tasting and sample fair trade coffee, chocolate and locally made products.
