‘EAT-ins’ have been organised by young people around the world since the first ‘Eat-in’ took place in San Francisco on September 1, 2008, during the Slow Food Nation event in the United States of America. The philosophy of the Eat-Ins organisation is a conscious effort to bring new people together, to strengthen our communities and to broaden the food movement. Watch the students of Slow Food’s University of Gastronomic Sciences preparing for their 2008 Eat-in in the Italian village of Bra. Another Eat-in was organised by the students from the university on 04 July 2009 in Turin’s Valentino Park to celebrate good, clean and fair food. This was supported by the city of Turin and Slow Food Piedmont. Both Slow Food Turin and Slow Food Piedmont invited local food producers to bring along their products.
