Slow Cheese Award
At every Cheese, Slow Food presents a Slow Cheese Award to those herders and artisan cheesemakers who have turned their back on the shortcuts offered by modernity.
Instead they stubbornly continue to make cheese and other foods with respect for naturalness, tradition and taste-even when it means hard work, risk and isolation. They are taking a stand, for us too, keeping alive an extraordinary heritage of knowledge, skills and nature.
