Slow Food is a non-profit, eco-gastronomic member-supported organisation that was founded in 1989 to counteract fast food and fast life, the disappearance of local food traditions and people’s dwindling interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, how it tastes and how our food choices affect the rest of the world.

Slow Food Sunshine Coast Hinterland is a new convivium, launched on the 30th of July 2009. We are committed to supporting local producers of food that is good, clean and fair.

There's no movie this week, but there is the amazing Slow Cafe with Sacred Chef Catering from 12noon to 2pm - a divinely inspired lunch using local ingredients. Also available at Slow Thursday: long-ferment, handmade, wood-fired, organic sourdough (Pain de Campagne, Spelt, Olive & Fetta, Fruit & Nut) - orders taken to make sure don't miss out.
