Slow Food Corvallis - Gathering Together for Terra Madre

Gathering Together for Terra Madre
Four-Course Beer-Pairing Dinner at Gathering Together Farm
Saturday August 21 6:30 pm

Terra Madre is an international network of food producers, cooks, educators and students from 150 countries who are united by a common goal of global sustainability in food. The "food communities" of Terra Madre gather together every two years to share innovative solutions and traditions for keeping small-scale agriculture and sustainable food production alive and well. Terra Madre 2010 will be held in Turin, Italy in late October. Corvallis-area delegates include John Eveland and Sally Brewer of Gathering Together Farm and Restaurant in Philomath. They are two of the fewer than 500 US delegates selected from over 1000 applicants.

Slow Food Corvallis invites you to enjoy a wonderful dinner prepared by GTF Executive Chef JC Mersmann and sous-chef Brad Burnheimer.
