Slow Food Utah is the Slow Food Convivia, or Chapter, for Utah. Slow Food Utah is a non-profit organization dedicated, in part, to promoting the "buy local" movement, small independent farms, local producers & retailers, and various organizations similarly inclined. We are engaged in food education such as Slow Food in Schools. We link producers and consumers, foster community, support eating local foods and support local farmers. Our Website provides a variety of information and resources applicable to the Slow Food Movement, both in Utah and around the world. Slow Food is a global, grassroots movement with thousands of members around the world linking the pleasure of food with a commitment to community and the environment, making the connection from "Plate to Planet." Slow Food's seven pillars: Access to good, clean and fair food; Agricultural and food biodiversity; Small-scale food production; Food sovereignty; Language, cultural and traditional knowledge; Environmentally responsible food production; Fair and sustainable trade.
