The world's most pressing questions regarding health, culture, the environment, education, social justice and the global economy are all deeply connected to the food we eat and how it is produced. Slow Food Nation is an event at the center of a movement with national impact and global implications.  It will engage tens of thousands of attendees in learning how everyday choices affect our wellbeing, our culture and the health of the planet.

The event is being held now from August 29 to September 1, 2008 in San Francisco, and is bringing hundreds of farmers and food artisans from across the country to present an extraordinary range of foods and preparation techniques. It offers activities for all ages, including food, music, talks, forums, workshops, films and exhibits, all highlighting food that supports an agricultural system that is good, clean and fair.
