Terra Madre Day

We enjoyed a very nice meal at La Cigale French Style Farmers Market, with Slow Food Auckland members and friends .
It was great to talk about our experiences  and photos from Terra Madre in Turin and with small produces who are passionate about their products.
On Saturday we did sampling of some local fresh  Monk fish,Honey,Biscuits  at a stall at the La Cigale French Style Farmers Market , to draw interested people to talk to them about small producers (like ourselves ) ,about the philosophy of GOOD,CLEAN,FAIR and encouraged them to join our data base to participate in future events.
We had a very successful  day.
