By the Sunday after Thanksgiving, your company will have left town or you will have returned home from holiday travels. What better time to transition to life as usual by “slowing down” with Slow Food? Bring a dish made from Thanksgiving leftovers or create something new and totally unexpected! Whatever you do, please join Slow Food East End for a wind-down Community Potluck at the beautiful and cozy Orient Inn.

Guest Speaker – Pennie Rudder will be joining us to describe her work with the very successful Chefs to Schools Program piloted last Spring. Pennie has an educational background in nutrition and biochemistry coupled with a curious spirit, which fuels her passion for sharing how food connects people, affects the environment and is so much fun to cook and eat!  She has taught cooking to children, developed a wellness program for a company and a farmers market, helped in food rescue and recently set up Our Little Pantry in Greenport.

 

Also this evening, Slow Food East End will proudly celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Slow Food International–a great achievement!
