Join Slow Food Philadelphia

Our food system is unsustainable, oppressive and disproportionately hurts Black, Indigenous and People of Color. In this world of crisis, many people wonder what they can do to help affect change. Slow Food is a driving force for change at the global, national and local level. We are seeking to grow our membership so that we can seek to rebuild the table for all of us, together.

For only $60.00 per year, you can become a member of Slow Food and help Slow Food USA’s initiatives while being a part of our local chapter that’s building relationships in your home! To join Slow Food today, visit the Slow Food USA website and select Philadelphia as your local chapter.

Being a membership-based organization means our success relies on the commitment and contributions of our members. Membership provides the fire and funds that fuel our movement: the more members we have, the more influence we have, and the more work we’re able to accomplish worldwide.
