I can\u2019t wait to explore this with Kris Reid, Executive Director of Slow Food USA. Kris\u2019s story comes full circle: inspired by the Slow Food movement in the early 2000s, she built her chef career and co-founded the PIEDMONT CULINARY GUILD to strengthen ties between farmers, makers, and eaters in Charlotte and beyond. In January, she stepped into the role of leading Slow Food USA into its next chapter. In this episode of Eating at a Meeting Podcast LIVE, we\u2019ll talk about: \u25b6\ufe0e How Kris\u2019s journey as a chef, mother, and food advocate connects to Slow Food\u2019s mission \u25b6\ufe0e Why grassroots community relationships are the key to transforming food systems \u25b6\ufe0e The values behind the Slow Food Manifesto and Theory of Change\u2014and what they mean for us as event professionals \u25b6\ufe0e How upcoming gatherings like Terra Madre Americas are uniting diverse voices around food justice, agroecology, and cultural exchange For those of us planning events and feeding guests, this conversation is more than philosophy\u2014it\u2019s about how we choose menus, source ingredients, and create inclusive dining experiences that nourish both people and planet. Kris is bringing energy, vision, and a lifetime of passion to this role. I\u2019m honored to welcome her as a guest and as a leader shaping the future of food advocacy. Will you join me for this powerful conversation? ","author_name":"Eating at a Meeting","author_url":"https:\/\/www.eatingatameeting.com\/","html":"
