Slow Food Cycle Sunday

Slow Food Cycle Sunday Pedal, Taste, Connect. A Celebration of Farming, Food & Community. Tickets now on sale for August 16th, 2026! Pre-purchase to save up to 50%.

Pemberton Meadows Road Closure: 10am to 3pm (no vehicle traffic) A celebration of food, farmers, and the joys of biking, Slow Food Cycle Sunday blows the fast-food drive-through away. It is a pedal-powered trip through the natural buffet that is Pemberton Meadows farmland to meet local growers and sample produce fresh from the field. The World Watch Institute reports that the average food item eaten in North America has traveled 2500-4000 km from farm to table. Here, the distance between good food and your table is as short as a 50km bike ride.
