Slow Money Gathering

Slow Money Gathering By The Abundance Foundation Dear Friends of Our Food Shed, The Slow Money Project is investing in local foods! Do you have a sustainable food-related idea or local food enterprise that could use funding? The Slow Money Project would like to help! To date we have raised $29,500 and made low-interest loans totalling $8000 to two of our very own local food enterprises. The objective of the Slow Money Project is to match people who wish to invest in improving the resilience of our community by enhancing our local food shed with borrowers who have compelling projects that can accomplish that goal. Come hear how this works on Monday, July 12th, 7-8:30pm in the Chatham Mills Conference Room, (just down the hall from the back door to the Chatham Marketplace) and find out how to apply for a low-interest loan, or how you can become an investor. Light refreshments will be provided, and you are welcome to BYOB from Chatham Markeplace. Please feel free to pass this invitation along to friends, family and anyone else you care about who might benefit from this project; as in anyone who eats food. Let's start planting our local money in our local food shed. Tomatoes and topsoil, Carol Peppe Hewitt
