As a member, you'll enjoy the following benefits:

• Member-only discounts on select events and publications. For example you will save $10 on the price of a ticket to the first ever All Vegan Slow Food Dinner, September 20th @ Beasley Orchard. This five course dinner will include delicious and filling dishes from 7 fabulous Indianapolis chefs, cocktails and fresh juice, a hayride tour of the farm, dinner among the rows in the orchard, and an end of evening bonfire to celebrate in the waning of summer nights. Tickets cost $50 for members and $60 for non-members. More information, including a list of participating chefs can be found at www.slowfoodindy.com, under events.
  
• Getting connected and find out more about what's happening with our local chapter, Slow Food Indy.
• Invitations to local, national and international events celebrating good, clean, fair food.
• Opportunities to take action and impact legislation affecting food and agriculture in the U.S.

Here's why Slow Food USA is seeking your support right now. Slow Food USA is working to directly impact national and local food policies. From the Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act to the Farm Bill, SF will be building alliances, bringing in key industry experts and heading to Washington to demand change.

Membership normally starts at $60, but from now until September 30th, your gift of any amount makes you a part of this movement. Give more if you can and less if you can't. The point is - Slow Food wants to know you support the movement.

Our kids deserve more than mystery meat and our communities need access to fresh, real food. Your support today will help make that happen.

Thanks for your support and we all look forward to your involvement!
