Woody will be our guest Thursday, May 27th, 7pm. He will catch us up on some of his latest innovations and ideas.
Woody’s newest project provides 0% loans to local farmers and food enterprises. The capital comes from folks in the area who can become an impact investor with just $250 to invest. SOIL is the most recent innovation in the Slow Money movement, which over its first decade has catalyzed the flow of more than $70 million to almost 700 small organic farms and food enterprises via dozens of local groups.
Some people refer to Woody as the founding father of social impact investing. Peter Strugatz, his friend and a long-time member of Social Venture Circle, explains Woody’s influence this way, “Mission investment is still in its infancy, but Woody cracked the dam. He taught me that foundations, universities, and unions have the moral right to invest their assets in alignment with their stakeholder values. He has opened my mind and heart to looking at soil, food and food systems differently.”
