As a way of celebrating the new Slow Food Rochester, we are holding an exciting series of local potluck dinners in September. RSVP to a potluck and meet other slow food fans over a great meal! Many events have limited capacity, so RSVP soon if you are interested!
Here is a list of current potlucks, many of which you can join by RSVPing on the link provided. We'll be adding more as the month progresses! September is NOFA-NY Locavore Challenge month, and we encourage you to also register for the NOFA-NY Locavore Challenge (www.nofany.org/events/ny-locavore-challenge).
We are looking for volunteers to host more events (see info below) and contact us.
