Doing Slow Food Nation

The Woodstock of food? For those who will be at Slow Food Nation in San Francisco over Labor Day weekend, I will be conducting a panel on Friday in the Changemakers Day series. This high-level, engaging event will focus on money and change: what food business brings to the sustainability table.

On board for the panel are Rick Schneiders, CEO of Sysco Food; Walter Robb, President of Whole Foods Market; Fedele Bauccio, CEO of Bon Appetit Management Co; and Woody Tasch, chairman of Investors Circle. Although not up yet on the Web site, it's being held Friday, August 29, from 1-2:30 p.m. Although this event is reserved for practitioners, there are limited public tickets available too.
