Our annual meeting & open house is coming up and everyone is invited! Each year we at Slow Food East End hold an open meeting to welcome new faces and introduce new board members to our community.
If you have been wanting to get involved and learn more about what our chapter does, this is the perfect opportunity to gather with the SFEE community and share what we’ve been up to this past year and our plans for the future.
In addition, it is also when we host our annual board member elections – come meet our nominees and cast your vote! Our ALL VOLUNTEER board members – new and returning – come with a passion for supporting local food on the East End and we can’t wait for you to meet them!
This event is also an open house and we will be showcasing the ways in which we are nourishing our community through our various SFEE programs. It’ll be a great opportunity to learn/share more about our ongoing Feed the Forks initiatives, including:
- Flour Power – Our home-based community baking program. This is an amazing way to lend your hands and love to the community by baking loaves and providing them for others in need.
- School Gardens – for the past 10 years, SFEE has supported one of the most successful Slow Food school garden programs in the U.S. reconnecting children and their families with real food, and inspiring their local communities to eat well.
- Snail of Approval – an SoA is awarded to businesses that incorporate the Slow Food ideals of Good, Clean & Fair food. This award brings recognition to amazing food businesses that are excelling in sourcing, environmental impact, cultural connection, community involvement, staff support, and/or business values.
- Resilience Grants – SFEE efforts to support the long-term success of the food growers and makers on the East End of Long Island during extremely challenging times.
