Slow Food at Griggstown Quail Farm

Slow Food Harrisburg supports the following events:

Author presentations: Once a year we invite a nationally recognized author to speak about food issues or regional culinary traditions.

Film Fest: We sponsor showings of films on food policy, food heritage and the joy of eating good, clean and fair food.

Local farm tours: Generally held in the summer, these tours are designed to explore our local agricultural resources and support our local growers. The tours include special entrees to visit farms and local farm markets. The tours usually include lunch at a local restaurant that embodies the Slow

Food creed: local, fresh and organic.

Meet the Producer Dinners: Twice a year we sponsor a dinner at Harrisburg Area Community College’s Culinary Arts Department to showcase local foods. In return, the future chefs learn about the benefits of sourcing local, fresh products and witness the food cycle from field to fork.
