At Slow Food Nation 2008, hundreds of young people participated in five days of activities dedicated toward building and empowering networks of students, young farmers, cooks, artisans, activists and eaters; giving them new resources; linking them with mentors in the wider food movement; and, allowing them to inspire others.

Through workshops and seed swaps, teach-ins and Eat-Ins, the message was: the fast food generation is taking it slow.
