Slow Food is an idea, a way of living and a way of eating. It is a global, grassroots movement with thousands of members around the world that links the pleasure of food with a commitment to community and the environment.

Slow Food is an international member-supported, volunteer-based organization that has developed many structural entities to help realize its projects. Slow Food Monadnock is the local chapter serving the Monadnock region of New Hampshire.
