2026 Slow Food Russian River Annual Meeting and Auction Donation request

Whether you are an active Slow Food member, a recent event attendee, an Apple Press patron or simply someone who is Slow Food-curious, we encourage you to come to learn more about Slow Food and the challenges of agriculture in Sonoma County, as well as to share wonderful food and meet other members of our welcoming community.

Bring an appetizer or dessert to share, beverage (alcoholic or otherwise), your plate, napkin, utensils, glassware. And bring a friend and learn about the impact of Slow Food to help create a healthier food system and how you can be a part of our international movement.

Carole Flaherty
