Slow
Food Feast of Fools and Friends,
|
|||
|
We are committed to engaging with local gardeners and farmers, food suppliers and vintners, to promote and extend a new relationship between urban life and food. Organic, locally-produced, heirloom species, traditional practices... all these contribute to the emerging culture of ethical, delicious, pleasurable food and social dining. CounterPULSE is taking its place at the table, bringing together our community with an extended network of sustainable and convivial food makers to produce amazing and memorable feasts.
Three previous Slow Food Feasts of Fools and Friends (in April 2006, October 2006 "Autumn Harvest,", and April 2007 "By the Sea...") featured guest speakers from the Slow Food San Francisco chapter, a permaculturist from Sebastopol, an organic urban chef, a San Francisco urban gardener, a post-carbon activist, a "Victory Gardens" artist, and a Fish & Game inspector and raconteur. Video clips of the food providers in their gardens and fields complement the meals. This Moving Foods Feast will have speakers, video clips, and again we'll have live music and surprising entertainers, plus a delightful crew of volunteer servers... they might be your friends already!

We need help with cleaning up behind our illustrious chefs at the industrial kitchen (apx. 5:00-6:30) and at the end of the night at CounterPULSE (apx. 10:30-12 midnight). We need waitpeople, wine pourers and water jockeys and jockettes, and we need schlepping help if you have a vehicle and time in the week prior to October 21...
