Join Slow Food Sacramento as we stay cool with Slow Beer at a hot location - Magpie! Slow Beer, you ask? You'll have to come and find out about our newest project.
Slow Beer is our link to the
Ark of Taste, which is the topic of the
Terra Madre Salone del Gusto extravaganza being held in Turin, Italy this September.
And we are sending five Sacramento delegates! Representing Sacramento will be: Magpie owner
Ed Roehr, local chef
Brenda Ruiz, Snail of Approval Chair
Cinamon Vann, rock star urban gardener
Chanowk Yisreal, and Slow Beer instigator
Lisa Frank.
Slow Food International's Terra Madre Salone del Gusto (Sept. 22-23) is the most important international event dedicated to food and gastronomy. From educational forums to conferences to a grand marketplace this is where international food communities meet. This is where ideas turn into actions. This is where biodiversity reigns and is celebrated.
This is where you come in -- help support our Terra Madre contingent -
your attendance at Slow Beer On A Hot August Night helps us raise money to send them to Italy in September!
In addition, we will host other fundraising events as well as a Go Fund Me site for direct fundraising. We are raising a minimum of $7,000 to cover their transportation costs. Please watch for announcements on upcoming events and the Go Fund Me site to help raise the necessary funds.
