Chefs will break bread next week with innovative farmers…part of a the Slow Food Movement started by Carlo Petrini. He’ll be making an appearance at the exclusive, sold out “picnic” near Chapel Hill.
Petrini, who trumpets slow food over fast, you-get-what-you-pay-for fast food, is traveling all over the country hawking his new book. According to the Carrboro Citizen, this is Petrini’s first trip to the South.
I wonder if he’ll take in some real slow food…slow cooked, mouth-watering Southern BBQ.

Thanks for the notice. There was some great ‘cue at the event. We’ll have some photos, audio and other goodies as well as a new story in Thursday’s paper. We also just started a food and farm section for our site.www.carrborocitizen.com/foodandfarmKirk RossEditorCarrboro Citizen(As a native Hoosier, I spent a lot of time on southern Indiana farms myself and, of course, proudly married to a Hoosier farmgirl)
