Slow Food USA Regional Governors

Slow Food USA Regional Governors are volunteer leaders who help to foster healthy development of local and campus chapters.  As connectors and mentors, governors facilitate communication amongst chapter leaders and provide guidance on chapter management.  A region is typically made up of ten or more chapters in a geographic area, and governors serve a 4-year term.  Read the bios of our governors by clicking here.
