Terra Madre Talks: Alice Waters and the school supported agriculture. - a podcast by Slow Food Youth Network

Today we will listen to another very inspiring Food Talk: the one of Alice Waters. Alice Waters is the vice president of Slow Food International, she is a chef and author, activist for food education and owner of the restaurant Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California. In 1996 she created the Edible Schoolyard Project, which in over 20 years has contributed to the spread of urban gardening and the value of a healthier food culture among the next generation. According to Alice Waters schools have an enormous potential when it comes to changing the future of the food system: they can choose to create direct relationships with local farmers, commit to buying their products at a fair price for the producer, taking into account the true cost of delivering it from farm to fork, and the hard work of the producers themselves...
