Who We Are
Our members are farmers, home cooks, brewers, vintners, chefs, speciality food makers, wine lovers, grocers, nutritionists, students, bakers and eaters—united in our support for good, clean, fair food.
Our work supports the success of sustainable farmers, producers and chefs using local ingredients, grocers bringing better food to the community. We’re striving to make good, clean, fair food more accessible for growers, producers, consumers, and everyone in between.
Slow Food Minnesota is making a difference. We're hosting events to build community around good, clean, fair food, raising awareness for sustainable producers and responsibly-sourced restaurants, and giving money to support organizations that align with our mission.
To support food education, equity, and community.
Founded in 1999, we have been working for almost 20 years to make local, sustainable, responsible food more accessible for the Twin Cities and surrounding areas.
With more than two thousand members and friends, we are a strong force for supporting partner organizations doing meaningful work in the Minnesota food system.
We're building up the strength of Slow Food MN, and we need people like you to help. We're developing a communication network, working to promote a holistic approach to farming and eating, and building programs to support the mission of fostering equitable access to good, clean, fair food.
Minnesota is a unique, vibrant community of diverse cultures. We're committed to highlighting unfamiliar food traditions, connecting individuals across cultural divides and unifying our community around the fight for good, clean, fair food for all.
The more accessible good, clean, fair food becomes, the easier it is for our community to have a holistic approach to the food system. We're working with growers, suppliers, and consumers to find innovative ways to improve accessibility.
One of our core strategies in fostering equitable access to good, clean, fair food in Minnesota is supporting the farmers that grow this food. We're connecting farmers to resources, helping them grow and raising awareness for local farms.
Growth and awareness comes from being present and involved, and by making a positive impact on our community. We are reaching out, constantly building our team, and working together to build a better food system.
