Slow Food Helsinki

Slow Food Helsinki Slow Food works around the world to protect food biodiversity, build links between producers and consumers, and raise awareness!

(In Finnish below) Slow Food involves over a million of people dedicated to and passionate about good, clean and fair food. This includes chefs, youth, activists, farmers, fishers, experts and academics in over 150 countries; a network of around 100,000 Slow Food members linked to 1,500 local chapters worldwide (known as convivia), contributing through their membership fee, as well as the events a

nd campaigns they organize; and over 2,500 Terra Madre food communities who practice small-scale and sustainable production of quality food around the world. Through its understanding of gastronomy with relation to politics, agriculture and the environment Slow Food has become an active player in agriculture and ecology. Slow Food links pleasure and food with awareness and responsibility. The association's activities seek to defend biodiversity in our food supply, spread the education of taste, and connect producers of excellent foods with co-producers through events and initiatives. SUOMEKSI
Slow Foodin tehtävä on puolustaa ravintomme monimuotoisuutta, levittää tietoa ruoasta jota syömme ja saattaa yhteen ruoan tuottajat ja ruoasta kiinnostuneet järjestämällä erilaisia tilaisuuksia, työpajoja, koulutuksia ja julkaisemalla tiedotus- ja opiskelumateriaalia kaikkien käytettäviksi. Ruoka on osa meidän identiteettiä ja kulttuuria ja meidän pitäisi olla ylpeitä niistä. Kyseessä on myös ruoan aidon maun tunnistaminen sekä myös tieto siitä mistä ruoka on peräisin. Tarkoituksena on oppia arvostaa ruokaa ja ruoan alkuperää koska meillä kaikilla on aktiivinen rooli ja vastuu kun kyseessä on oman seudun talouselämä. Valitsemalla lähituotteita vaikutamme lähistön monimuotoisuuteen! Join us here:

No dig gardening course at Tuiskula Farm 🥒

Thanks to Essi & Pieter-Jan for sharing your knowledge and hosting us. We spent a full day learning about soil science, companion plants, soil blocking, composting & plant care. We finished the day by visiting the farm shop and bought some of their famous pasture-raised eggs. 🍳

Tuiskula Farm is part of the REKO ring, so you can also purchase their products regularly in Helsinki.

We hope to join you again for next year’s courses! 🌾

Join us for a calming and immersive guided herb tasting experience, where we’ll explore the unique qualities of medicinal and aromatic plants through story, tradition, and flavor. During the session, each herb will be introduced one at a time, with insights into its key properties, traditional uses, health benefits, and the cultural or historical stories connected to it. After each introduction, we’ll taste the herb together as a freshly prepared tea, allowing space to fully experience its aroma, flavor, and effects.

The session is designed to be slow-paced, sensory, and interactive — an opportunity to deepen your connection with plants while enjoying a mindful tea ritual in community.

Over approximately 1.5 hours, we will explore around 7–10 carefully selected herbs. No prior knowledge is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to taste, learn, and connect.

The workshop is hosted by Anna Nyman. Anna is a biologist and a certified wild food guide. She also studies herbalism and finished her studies in August 2022.

Date & Time : Tuesday 19.5 @ 17:00 -18:30
Place: Zestii Kitchens Kallio
Meeting point: Kaarlenkatu 15, 00530 Helsinki
