slow food helsinki reading circle

Are you curious to learn more about why (agri)cultural biodiversity is essential for resilient and just food systems? 🍊🌽
Join our reading circle starting on August 26 at at the Zestii Kitchens / Oma Maa community space (Kaarlenkatu 15) in Kallio. We will agree on the following meet-ups then.
Eating to Extinction is a key read for everyone interested in the Slow Food principles. The book consists of 10 sections ranging from wild foods, cereals and vegetables all the way to fermented foods and drinks like cheese, coffee and alcohol.
The book is not very widely available in Finland, so we recommend buying a copy online. There are also two physical copies available in the public libraries through Helmet.
For the first meeting, please read 1) Introduction, Food: A Very Brief History, 2) from the section 'Wild' the chapter ‘Hadza Honey’ & 3) from the section 'Cereal' the chapter ‘Kavilca Wheat’.
If you have any questions regarding the reading circle, please email slowfoodhelsinki@proton.me 📩
