Sunday, May 20, 4:30-6 pm

Woody Tasch, founder of the Slow Money Institute, will speak about his new book, SOIL: Notes Towards the Theory and Practice of Nurture Capital, and provide an update on Slow Money’s progress, including the $60 million invested in more than 625 small organic farms and local food businesses in the United States, Canada, France, and Australia.

The Slow Money Institute is a non-profit organization dedicated to catalyzing the flow of capital to local food systems, connecting investors to the places where they live and promoting new principles of fiduciary responsibility that “bring money back down to earth.”

The event is cosponsored by Austin Foodshed Investors. More information on the Facebook event page.
