Slow Food Shoreline: Supporting Good, Clean, and Fair Food in Connecticut
low Food Shoreline, a local chapter of Slow Food USA, was founded in August 2011, originally focusing our efforts in South- ern Connecticut, from lower-Fairfield through New London County. Our mission is to promote good food that is created with care from healthy plants and animals, that is grown and harvested in ways which have a positive impact on the planet, and that is accessible to all, regardless of income. We have been holding a variety of events across Southern Connecticut connecting local organizations, sup- porting local businesses and fostering community development. Over the past 6 months we have created a Slow Happy Hour Series that rotates monthly to network with community members and support an independent local restaurant. We have held a very successful food swap, where one can bring their home-made or foraged creations to barter with other community members, a Food and Art Tour at the Yale University Art Gallery led by a Wuertele Gal- lery Teacher, as well as a Stock Making Course and Vegan Cupcake Class. For more information about past and future events please visit our website below. Slow Food Shoreline is now coming north to Litchfield, Hartford, and Tolland Counties! We are a membership driven organization and we wish to hear
S
your suggestions and thoughts for events in your area. We are also looking for community representatives and volunteers, folks that are willing and able to further the Slow Food mission. Anyone interested please contact slowfoodshoreline@gmail.

Connecticut Institute for Herbal Studies Returning to New Britain A
fter two decades of working with the art and science of Traditional Chinese Herbology in the Newington Wethersfield area, the Connect- icut Institute for Herbal Studies is returning to its roots. C.I.H.S. is coming home to 912 Corbin Avenue in New Britain, CT on June 1st. It is with great joy that I can provide appointments for care and teach about Traditional Chinese Medicine in a newly designed room with lush oriental carpeting, a fireplace and really comfortable chairs (anyone who has enjoyed a class at the school, knows how tough those folding chairs were to sit on…but it did provide us the wonderful opportunity to have Tai Chi & Qi Gong classes with George Hoffman on Wednes- day nights). We will continue to provide classes accepted for CEU’s by the NCBTMB and learn from wise and gifted instructors from across the coun-
try who teach with passion & incredible knowledge. Please make note of our new Address, easily found off of RT 9. 912 Corbin Avenue, New Britain, CT. Our new telephone number will be: 860-TCM-2705. View our new space on
www.CTHerbschool.com and on my Facebook page under Laura Mignosa. I know Spirit will be present in our New Home and trust you will all find your way to us. See ad on page 16.
