01What it does

What Slow Food USA Inc Dba Slow Food Phoenix does

Mission

Slow food phoenix believes food is tied to many other aspects of life including culture, politics, agriculture and the environment. Through our food choices we can collectively influence how food is cultivated, produced and distributed - and change the world as a result.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.

Programs

  1. Slow food phoenix uses social media and public events to educate the community about our vision of a food system that is good, clean, and fair for all arizonans. We support local farmers and businesses that align with these values. In 2024, we hosted a public screening of the documentary we are all plastic people now to raise awareness about the impact of plastic on our food systems. The event featured a panel discussion with experts and a talk by the film's director. Approximately 70 people attended, and many shared how the film influenced their understanding of food and environmental issues.
