About us

What is Slow Food?

Slow Food is about the universal right that good, clean, and fair food should be available for everyone. Good, because food should taste good; clean, because it should be produced in a way that fully respects the environment, human health, and animal welfare; and fair, because the workers at all stages of production should be paid a fair and honest wage

South Madison

A partnership with UW-Madison to connect university students with local schools in supporting nutrition, food, and sustainability education.
