In September a council meeting of FACEnetwork was organised in Bra (Italy), preceding the Slow Food Cheese Event. Our council meeting took place in the House of Biodiversity, where we were hosted by Slow Food. We also had a meeting with a representative of Slow Food and spoke about the topics that FACEnetwork and Slow Food have in common and how we could join forces, for example regarding raw milk issues, animal welfare and applications for research funds.

At the event, cheesemakers and others active in FACEnetwork were omnipresent: at the market, in taste workshops and in demonstrations.
We took good advantage of this possibility to meet in person.
