SUMMARY:Husary Olive Oil Tour and Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Join us and immerse yourself in the world of olive oil production. \nHusary Olive Oil began in 2009 after a trip to Palestine. Olive cultivation is a very ancient tradition in the Middle East and trees can live for 2\,000 years. \nHusary’s olive grove has many different types of olives\, but it became a passion to also grow the olives native to Palestine.

Their olive oil is organic and handcrafted by the family-owned and operated business. \nYou will have the opportunity to walk through the olive grove and hear about the varieties they chose to plant. You will also learn about the milling process (which they do for home growers) and get to taste their artisanally crafted oil. After the tasting\, you will have the ability to purchase their award-winning olive oil. We will then meet for a picnic at a location to be determined to spend time with our Slow Food friends\, so bring your bag lunch! \nDon’t miss this unique opportunity to savor the essence of Husary Olive Oil with fellow food enthusiasts! \nGET YOUR TICKET

SUMMARY:Terra Madre Americas
DESCRIPTION:Slow Food International is hosting Terra Madre Americas\, the inaugural event to allow for a dialog between different worlds (those of food producers\, scientists\, cooks\, researchers\, and\, above all\, people) who will meet in Sacramento and make the event an unmissable occasion for participation\, connection\, and discussion. \nTerra Madre Americas will explore how food is interrelated with most aspects of our lives and environment\, with specific focuses on the climate crisis\, social justice\, and education in the food and beverage system through the lens of specific topics. \nNOTE: Look for the Slow Food Russian River table manned by some of our Board Members.
