Convivia are chapters of Slow Food that form the foundation of conviviality and provide the grassroots fuel for the movement. More than 170 convivia all over the US invite members to taste, celebrate, and champion the foods and food traditions important to their communities. Convivia are led by volunteer leaders, and convivium is distinct in its approach and local activity. Convivium comes from the Latin word convivere – “to live with, hence to feast with” – because conviviality is an essential ingredient of Slow Food .To find the Convivium closest to you, please choose your state from the drop-down box below or view your state on the Google map.
