Nabhan has been involved with Slow Food for many years. I was lucky enough to have the the opportunity to hear him speak at Terra Madre 2006 and was moved to tears by his empowering words. His works "Coming Home to Eat", "Renewing America's Food Traditions", and many others are well known among Slow Food members and local food enthusiasts across the nation and around the world. His new book, "Chasing Chiles", written in collaboration with Kurt Michael Friese, examines the future of place-based foods and the effects of climate change on agriculture from the perspective of the chile pepper.
