ARK OF TASTE DINNER
Slow Food Charleston is a proud promoter of the Ark of Taste. The Ark of Taste is a living catalog of delicious, distinctive foods facing extinction. We keep these foods in production and on our plates by identifying and championing them.
The Ark of Taste is a tool for farmers, ranchers, fishers, chefs, grocers, educators, and consumers to seek out and celebrate our country’s diverse biological, cultural, and culinary heritage.
We aim to host dinners, events, and educational workshops to engage the public in learning more about these foods. To view the Ark of Taste list, click here. Each summer, we host a dinner to highlight these special foods featuring some of Charleston’s best chefs.
Tiny Tastemakers
Slow Food Charleston is creating a direct, playful connection to the local food community for the next generation of consumers. Cultivating relationships with growers and makers is imperative to preserving and improving the Charleston foodshed and the greater community.
By making our food culture a joyful part of children’s lives, we are actively investing in Slow Food’s future. If you would like to know more, learn about future gatherings, or get involved, please email us.
