Slow Food Noosa first began in Pomona in 2003 with five members, in 2007 Matt Golinski was the President and initiated the Slow Food Noosa School Garden Project. It has grown significantly since then but is still run by a committee of dedicated volunteers who give their time freely to make a positive difference in their community.
