Terra Madre Day
Terra Madre Day
 
The three Terra Madre world meetings of food communities organized by Slow Food since 2004 have brought together thousands of small farmers, producers, cooks, educators, youth and activists from 150 countries to collaboratively work together on improving our food system.

This year, on the occasion of Slow Food’s 20th anniversary, Terra Madre Day is being held to bring this focus to the very local level. T

More 1,000 communities have celebrated Terra Madre Day this December 10, involving over 100,000 participants, in one of the largest global occasions to promote sustainable food and ‘eating locally’. These community actions are building opposition to the negative impacts of agribusiness and promoting healthy food and communities.

Terra Madre Day is guided by seven pillars that reflect our values and hopes for the future and which we demand as a right for all communities.
