Fodom cheese is a typical cheese from the municipality of Livinallongo del Col di Lana, whose name derives from the Ladino idiom corresponding to one of the hamlets in the municipality, it is made from raw milk from three milkings, two in the morning and one in the evening, partly with whole milk and partly skimmed by natural creaming. It is a cheese made from milk produced from grasses and hay mowed on the steepest slopes of the Belluno Dolomites.

Known as the Drubiaglio flat blonde onion, this ecotype is distinguished by its size (7-10 cm in diameter), the shape of the bulb (flat and round), the colour (with the outer layer being a golden blond or straw yellow and the inside being white), sweetness and digestibility. It can be eaten fresh or preserved for autumn and winter (da serbo).

Marzellina wheat is durum, historically grown in the Val Fortore, in the Beneventano, Campania.
It is generally sown in the Appenine areas at the end of November; if it rains too much though, it is sown in spring, in March. This is where the name “marzellina” comes from.

Farmers are losing their most precious asset: seeds.
And they are losing the ancient knowledge which allowed them to select seeds and exchange them within their communities. Today, ten multi-national companies control 90% of the seed market.

Slow Food Community Garden - Slow Food Martesana (Gorgonzola - Metropolitan City of Milan).
Slow Food community gardens represent the essence of Slow activism, driven by the concrete interest and commitment of those who wish to know their food closely and contribute to the protection of biodiversity.
They include different types of gardens, including therapeutic, urban, social, convivial, school, collective, within prison settings, hospital facilities, and more in order to involve a wide range of stakeholders and groups, embracing multiple forms of being and doing community. The Slow Food Community Gardens network is an expression of a willingness to get involved, physically and mentally, activating processes of positive change, involving different aspects of collective and individual life.

Nanga Lauk Village’s River and lake area provides a natural habitat for a diverse range of flowering plants. These plants serve as a crucial food source for Apis dorsata, a species of forest bee that relies on the surrounding natural bounty to produce high-quality honey. Among the many plant species that thrive in this environment, Putat trees (Barringtonia acutangula) and Tahun trees (Carallia bracteata) stand out as sources of nectar, making them essential ingredients in the production of premium forest honey.

The vocational area of the Voghera bell pepper consists of an interregional area extending between the provinces of Pavia and Alessandria, with the territory of the municipality of Voghera at its center. The Voghera bell pepper is basically cubic in shape with dimensions of almost equal height, width and depth, although more elongated and rounded variants are permissible. The typical rib should have four ribs.It is very light green in color before turning and yellow or yellow-orange in advanced stages of ripening.

The Novara Hills Earth Market opens its doors in April 2024, following a great deal of work to involve local producers who had already been involved in the activities of the Novara Hills Convivium for several years. A group of 37 producers, constituted as a Slow Food community, focused their efforts on the realisation of a project with a broader scope and impact.

Carinthia is the cradle region of Austria for the Slow Food Travel model.
It was precisely among these valleys and pastures that Slow Food Travel was first tested and implemented internationally, leading to the development of the Slow Food Travel destination Alpe Adria in the Geiltal and Lesachtal valleys, which was followed by Marktplatz MittelKärnten

The Presidium is the result of a collaboration between the Fundación Gran Chaco and the Cooperativa de Mujeres Artesanas del Gran Chaco (CO.M.AR.), and aims to combat the abandonment of the land, the impoverishment of the local diet and the resulting health problems.
CO.M.AR was founded in 2000 and is made up of eight associations, involving a total of around 1,600 women from the Wichi and Comle’ec ethnic groups. In the Argentinian Gran Chaco, the women traditionally take care of the house and the children.

Lowland meadows, on the other hand, are natural and rich in dozens of different grasses, as many as a hundred in the high mountains.
They still need human labor: they must be tended, mowed or grazed. But their best protectors are the four-legged animals: cattle, sheep, goats and insects: bees, butterflies, wasps, ladybugs...

Ethiopia is the country of origin of coffee and, therefore, the only country in the world where plants are found in the wild. Every family, for millennia, has roasted its cherries, pounded them in the mortar, and offered coffee to guests. The first coffee (abol), already sweetened, is served to the eldest person, then the other two (tona and baraka), made by adding water into the jabana from time to time. Harenna Forest, one of Ethiopia's largest, is located in the mountains of the magnificent Bale National Park, 350 kilometers south of the capital Addis Ababa. Here, around 1,800 meters above sea level, an Arabica coffee with extraordinary quality potential still little known and exploited grows wild in the shade of tall trees.

Although the Torre Guaceto reserve is relatively small (it is about 1,200 hectares insisting on the municipal territories of Carovigno and a small part of Brindisi), it has an extraordinary variety of protected ecosystems. To safeguard the biodiversity of the protected area, a new project has also been initiated: the recovery of the local ecotype of tomato fiaschetto.
This sweet, juicy, preservable tomato is part of the gastronomic history of these lands: it was the base for the passata that all families, even urban ones, produced for the winter.

Acerra’s agricultural economy has historically been connected to its many canals, the Regi Lagni, which cross the fields and mark out the borders of its territory. Already in the pre-Roman era, the Acerra countryside was crossed by the Clanio, an important river for agriculture in the Campanian plain and essential to irrigation and water supplies throughout the Acerra area. Ancient Roman historians and writers have recounted how the network of waterways created by the Clanio became so branching and disordered that it created many problems. The river had many tributary channels, and because of the floods caused by these waterways, Acerra found itself surrounded by an enormous swamp. The problems caused by the water did not stop agricultural activities; after a long period of crisis following the fall of the Roman Empire and a series of wars between Longobards, Byzantines and Saracens fighting over this fertile plain, cultivation restarted around the 11th century, boosting the area’s economy.

Over the centuries, with the help of farmers, local varieties of crops have adapted themselves
to the local climate and soil. They are hardier and require fewer inputs
(chemical fertilizers and pesticides). This makes them more environmentally and economically sustainable.
