Welcome to the Nashville Convivium of Slow Food. Slow Food is a non-profit, eco-gastronomic organization that works to counteract the disappearance of local food traditions. We seek to rekindle people’s interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, how it tastes and how our food choices affect the rest of the world. Most of Slow Food’s 80,000 members are in Europe and the United States. The Nashville Convivium was formed in 2001.

In Nashville, we promote and celebrate the bounty of Middle Tennessee farms and traditional local cooking, working with the farmers’ markets and many others in the community. Check our Links to find out where to “Buy Local” and about some of the farms who supply the markets and restaurants in the area.
