Food creates human connection. We see it every day around our co-living dinner table, in our busy kitchen, and on our visits to the trattorias and caf茅s around us.

So we were thrilled that the world-famous Terra Madre Salone del Gusto food festival lands in our region this September 24 to 27, in Turin. We've paired up with chef, nutrition and sustainability expert Astrid Poulsen, who joins the community for the month to facilitate a whole season dedicated to local Italian cuisine and sustainable eating.
