Dear Valerie, Cynthia and Slow Food Edmonton;
On behalf of the Slow Food Canada Executive, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for hosting this year’s National Meeting of Convivium Leaders. The weekend was well organized with diverse events and tasting experiences (the urban foraging excursion and subsequent meal was a highlight for us!).
Your fundraising efforts are laudable and we thank you for your contribution of $8,275.00 to Slow Food Canada. This will go a long way towards expanding our communications efforts and linking Canada in a more efficacious way.
Slow Food Edmonton is a leading example of a convivium with passion, resources and will – the will to change the food system, to which we all are committed as members of Slow Food.
Keep up the good work!
Yours truly,
Voula Halliday, Michael Howell
Slow Food Canada Executive
