Idea by @Skip Corsini

Marin County should be an organized, deliberate mecca for people who are interested in the Slow Food, Farm to Table, Organic Food movement of the past twenty years. We sit in the middle of the healthy eating and drinking capital of the globe, the quadrangle of Berkeley/North Bay/Marin/San Francisco. Only parts of Europe are comparable. People should be coming here from every part of the world to learn. There should be some kind of Institute of higher learning that would form and inform the community. Perhaps a partner would be an academic department at Berkeley to help set the tone, but once the tone is set, we need to attract businesses to support the concept. The farm communities of West Marin and Sonoma comprise the perfect backdrop for commercial interests to enter and thrive. If Eataly can succeed in Manhattan, why not here?
