Old Westbury Gardens is having a week of Adult Summer Break Camp, and I am honored to be leading a day about Slow Food! In recent years practitioners of the slow food movement have spoken about the detrimental effects of a diet based largely on highly processed commercial food. But what exactly is “slow food” and does it mean sacrificing time in our daily schedules to reap its benefits? I will happily answer these and other questions, as you walk the gardens and learn about the impact of the foods we consume on the environment and our personal wellness. Then you’ll learn tips and cooking advice as I prepare a healthy lunch based on these principals. The meal is included in registration.
