Who We Are

Recognizing that the enjoyment of wholesome food is essential to the pursuit of happiness, Slow Food U.S.A. is an educational organization dedicated to stewardship of the land and ecologically sound food production; to the revival of the kitchen and the table as centers of pleasure, culture, and community; to the invigoration and proliferation of regional, seasonal culinary traditions; and to living a slower and more harmonious rhythm of life.

Slow Food Buffalo, the local Convivium (chapter) of the movement, is an active part of the Western New York community. We host events to raise awareness of local food producers and their products, hold educational tastings, and support local groups that share similar goals. Our mission is to have fun sharing the things we love about our home while ensuring their continued existence.

Fresh and Local - April 1


Here is a great opportunity to get involved.

Join us for an intensive brainstorming seminar to connect restaurants and famers and get more locally produced food into Buffalo’s restaurants, grocery stores, and institutions. We will also begin to examine some of the area’s best green sourcing options, buyer's collectives and establish a local/sustainable wish list.

The Growing Green Program from the Massachusetts Avenue Project (MAP) will share their experience observing local sourcing networks from across the country. Co-sponsors include MAP, Slow Food Buffalo and area Farmers' Markets.

When: April 1 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM
Where: Market Arcade Building, 617 Main St. between Chippewa and Tupper

Hosted by Amy Kedron of Buffalo First
