Each year, Slow Food NYC holds an open meeting to welcome new faces—including board member nominations and committee volunteers—to our community. On Thursday, November 11 from 6:30-7:30 p.m. EST, we're holding a virtual gathering on Zoom where we'll share information on our activities and plans for the future. This is the perfect opportunity for those wishing to get more involved and learn about the work of our local chapter. No-cost tickets are available here, and we’re looking forward to meeting you. Join us to learn about volunteer roles, joining the board, or to talk about food with our virtual Slow Food NYC community!

As part of the Slow Food USA network, our local chapter is dedicated to the development of an equitable, just, and healthy local food system that truly works for all of us. We encourage a diverse range of perspectives and experiences at our table to best reflect the varied needs of our entire community—and we hope to see you there! Please reach out to info@slowfoodnyc.org with any questions.

This event is no-cost, though we welcome donations to support our Urban Harvest Farm at Ujima—a tuition-free, educational urban farm community resource operating in East New York, Brooklyn during the growing season—and ongoing programs. In 2020 alone we donated more than 700 pounds of produce from Ujima to community partners in the neighborhood with the support of our members. Please consider making a contribution so this work can continue at DonorBox.org/SlowFoodNYC.
