Terra Madre Americas will take place in Sacramento September 26–28 as a free, weekend-long culinary convergence powered by Slow Food International and Visit Sacramento. The event focuses on food politics, sustainable agriculture, environmental stewardship, and the full path of food from growth and harvest to preparation and consumption. Slow Food promotes good, clean, and fair food, food education, cultural and biological diversity, and policy influence to transform food systems. Sacramento's strong farm-to-fork ethos offers a fitting backdrop, highlighting organic produce, heritage seeds, pasture-raised eggs, sustainably caught fish, and meat that prioritizes animal welfare.
If there's one thing I care about most in this world, it's eating good food. I want it to be flavorful, nutritious and interesting, but above all, I want it to be slow. Food like this doesn't cut corners, meaning it champions quality over quantity - think organic produce grown from heritage seeds, pasture-raised eggs, fish that's caught sustainably, meat that puts animal welfare above profits. It's not always possible, but I try to eat this way as much as I can.
Terra Madre Americas is a first-of-its kind global culinary convergence that debuts in Sacramento this September, all powered by Slow Food International and Visit Sacramento. If you're not familiar with Slow Food, it's a global movement dedicated to good, clean and fair food for all. It was founded in Italy in 1986 and has since spread to a worldwide network of local communities and activists who promote food education, cultural and biological diversity, and influence policies that can help transform food systems.
