VPR Cafe: The Slow Food Movement

Back in 1989, Italians marched in the street carrying bowls of pasta to protest a proposed McDonalds in Rome. From there, the Slow Food Movement was born. Slow food is nurtured in the kitchen, savored at the table and shared among friends. Candace Page, who writes for the Savorvore Section of the Burlington Free Press, talks about how the Slow Food Movement is catching on in Vermont.

You can learn more about Slow Food and how to get involved in the Free Press.

The VPR Cafe is produced in collaboration with the Burlington Free Press and is made possible on VPR by the Vermont Community Foundation Food And Farm Initiative.

Franny was VPR's Director of Programming & Production.
Ric was a producer for Vermont Edition and host of the VPR Cafe.
