Slow Food, USA Time For Lunch Eat-In


Want to help change the food served in your child's school? Here's an opportunity to take part in a nationwide movement to get the attention of decision makers to radically improve the food served in our nation's school cafeterias.

This month venues all across America are hosting Eat-Ins or giant potlucks for us southern folk. The goal is to remind us all that real food is within our reach and to let our legislators know that while we understand budgets are tight, the food served to our kids shouldn't be on the chopping block.

The push for real food in schools was started by Slow Food USA, an educational non-profit organization. Learn more about Slow Food, USA, find an Eat-In near you or simply sign the petition. The choice is yours but please choose.

Vermont is a great place to live for this...the school our son goes to (local elementary school) serves local foods whenever possible and does mostly organics! It is great!!! Hopefully more schools will go in this direction.
