Hello,
Are you planning any Slow Foods events at organic gardens around Eugene any time this summer (2010)??
Thank you,
Suzanne Sawyer
Dear Suzanne: Thanks for your interest. The annual One Field Meal is August 22, and we have a couple of other things pending. Watch the “events” page for details. Best wishes and bon appetit!
Dear Slow Food Eugene,
A representative of the Presidium awarded Kallari Association will be in your area soon. I understand this offers you little time to prepare, but if possible we are willing to do a chocolate tasting the evening of February 1st or 2nd (or the last days of January if necessary).
Please feel free to contact the Slow Food group in Corvallis or Olympia to gain an understanding of the tasting and the educational opportunity it provides for your members.
Best regards,
Judy Logback
