"Connecting bean producers: Slow Beans and the Let it Bean! initiative"

Presented by : Carolina Modena - Coordinator.

Slow Beans Network -  The contribution of the Slow Food Network - a global, grassroots organization, founded in 1989 to prevent the disappearance of local food cultures and traditions. https://www.slowfood.com/where-have-you-bean/ .

Slow Food has been working to support a network of beans producers deeply involved in the work of the association through different projects.

Slow Beans was born with the specific objective of promoting the value and the consumption of beans, while strengthening relationships between the network members.

Last year, we launched the Let it Bean! initiative to involve municipalities' strengths in this ambitious work.
