Slow Food Greater Olympia



The recent annual meeting for Slow Food Greater Olympia was a celebration of the incredible people who care about good, clean, and fair food for everyone in our community. It was inspiring to spend time with the advocates, chefs, farmers, brewers, bakers, and backyard gardeners who are all contributing to a culture of delicious local food. And it gave us a chance to connect with our fellow Snail of Approval awardees and learn more about what they each are doing in terms of their sourcing,
environmental impact, cultural connection, community involvement, staff support, and business values. 

Thanks to the Snail awardees for raising the bar for local food in our region: Chicory Restaurant, Dancing Goats and Singing Chickens Farm, OlyKraut, Folk Bread, Sofie's Scoops, Helsing Junction Farm, Finnriver Cidery, and The Wandering Goose at the Tokeland Hotel.

Slow Food Greater Olympia has lots of great things in store for the coming year, including opening the application process for the next round of Snail of Approval awards, and more stories from the BIPOC Farmer Oral History Project. They are also looking for additional board members who care about local food. If you'd like to get involved, learn more on their website.
