Also from Slow Food Canada: Donate to Help Send 15 Young Canadians to Milan for International Slow Food Event October 3-6, 2016
The International Slow Food Youth organization is organizing “We Feed
the Planet”, an event which will take place in Milan as part of
the World Expo. Fifteen young producers from Canada hope to participate
in this event to add their voices to the crucial, global dialogue on
agriculture, sustainability and the future condition of our planet, all
while building networks and making connections. A fundraising
campaign has been set up to raise $30,000 in order to cover the
roundtrip airfare for each delegate to Milan. For more information and
