Twenty five years ago, the Slow Food Manifesto came into being, reminding us of the value of local food, time at the table with family, and a slower pace of pleasure. In collaboration with Slow Food International, we are encouraging you to take a minute and sign this manifesto, committing yourself to cooking a meal at home tonight for family, brewing craft beer, or just spending time with friends over some of your favorite home-made snacks. For all those who believe “a firm defense of quiet material pleasure is the only way to oppose the university folly of Fast Life,” follow this link and sign your name in agreement.
