Doe Bay Café is hosting a Slow Food potluck in honor of Terra Madre Day on Wednesday, Dec. 9 at 5 p.m.

It is free public event, and the cafe will not be open for business.

They are welcoming local farmers, cooks, grocers and neighbors who are interested in supporting local food to come share their food and beverages together.

Bring food you have made yourself, and if possible, grown, brewed, caught or wildcrafted yourself, to share.

Terra Madre Day celebrates 20 years of Slow Food, a non-profit, eco-gastronomic, member-supported organization. Founded in 1989 Slow Food’s mission is to counteract fast food and fast life, the disappearance of local food traditions and people’s dwindling interest in the food they eat.
