If we want regenerative farms and food businesses to thrive, we have to talk about money. How do we help them grow without forcing them to sell out their values?That's exactly what Claude Arpels - and Slow Money NYC - is working to solve. Claude has spent years rethinking investment strategies to support regenerative food systems. After a first career in luxury fashion, he pivoted to impact investing, helping farms and food businesses secure the land and capital they need—without compromising their mission.In this episode, Claude breaks down: Why traditional venture capital and private equity push businesses toward environmental and labor exploitation. How Slow Money NYC was created as a response to these challenges. The creative funding tools—like revenue notes—that align investment with long-term sustainability. The role of local investment in building resilient food systems. And much more…More about Claude and Slow Money:After a first career in the fashion and luxury biz, Claude chose to dedicate himself to his interests in food, the environment, social enterprise, and the arts. He has become an impact angel investor, with a focus on local economies and businesses that have a sustainable/regenerative food and agriculture mission. His portfolio of investments includes Brooklyn Grange, Matriark Foods, Raven & Boar, and Edenesque. Claude is the Co-Chair of Slow Money NYC and a founding member of Foodshed Investors New York, which is now part of Investors Circle, whose advisory board he sits on.

There are so many get-rich-quick scams now, and with retargeting advertising, I think they are getting better at hooking more people in. I have met a large number of people that fell for these programs and none that succeeded. Slow money is where long-term success occurs, and real miracles of quick surges of success, too.  Mentioned in this video -  Paul Apollonia group https://www.meetup.com/Raleigh-eBay-Users-Group/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=group_comms&utm_campaign=organizer-broadcast-custom-list Also, see one of my Slow Money projects http//EvocativeQuotes.com  My Success Coaching website is ⁠https://Coachingsupport.com⁠ .

Woody Tasch thinks like a root vegetable grows: slow, sure, mostly underground, deeply nourishing.                 From this perspective, in collaboration with a rainbow circle of fellow evolutionists, comes the investment structure Tasch and friends call Beetcoin: small local donations generating Zero interest, locally-made loans supporting local sustainable food systems and the community economics they feed to flourish - aiming to work on a global scale.            A mission-focused investment strategist since the 1990s, Tasch keeps FUN in focus, in his serious business of transforming systems: food, funding, social values. Since 2010, the Slow Money movement he has fronted has channeled $80 million to over 800 organic farms and local food enterprises via volunteer-led efforts in dozens of communities.

#043: Founder and chairperson of the Slow Money Institute Woody Tasch talks us through investing in our local communities, farms, and soil with great intention and patience. Woody promotes a grassroots approach through the formation of community groups that offer zero-percent loans to organic farms and food businesses actively stewarding living soil.  Woody Tasch is the author of SOIL: Notes Towards the Theory and Practice of Nurture Capital, Inquiries into the Nature of Slow Money: Investing as if Food, Farms, and Fertility Mattered  (2008) and has most recently written AHA! Fake Trillions, Real Billions, Beetcoin, and the Great American Do-Over.  Woody is the creator of Beetcoin, which is designed to give zero-percent loans to organic farms and local foos businesses.  In 2010 UTNE Reader names him one of “25 Visionaries Who Are Changing Your World.” To watch a video version of this podcast please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/woody-tasch-investing-local-soil-slow-money-episode-forty-threeThe Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce. It also identifies pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs as compared to products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/farmsWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be. But the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing small farms that follow the law. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but are still paying a premium price. The lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends!https://www.realorganicproject.org/1000-real-fans/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

Everything serves a purpose and contributes to the wellbeing of the farm.               Sheep eat the grass, conserving tractor fuel, and produce compost to grow cut flowers and specialty veg.

Quantum Quote: “The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we should save our country.” – Abraham Lincoln Quantum Quote: “Hope is the belief in the plausibility of the possible as opposed to the necessity of the probable.” – Maimonides Most of us want to “do the right thing”. But traditionally, we don't know what's in our investment portfolios. While our investments affect the world we live in, most of us are not aware of where our investments go,  and if those investments support what we believe in. And, sometimes, what we thought was having a positive impact, is actually creating the opposite effect. Do you want to understand what your money is doing, while making sure that the return you get is not destructive to you, other people, and the world? Are you wondering if your investments are aligned with your moral and environmental compass? Listen and dive into the world of Aware and No-Harm Investing as Marco shares his story on how to have a positive impact by understanding how investment systems work. Marco Vangelisti, CFA, is a 100% Aware and No-Harm investor with a longstanding commitment to impact and regenerative investing. He is the founder of Essential Knowledge for Transition (EK4T) – a company that aims to democratize understanding of the large systems in society so that we can redesign them to be in balance with nature. Marco is also a founding members of Slow Money and was on the leadership team of the Slow Money Northern California Network since its inception. He was a Fulbright scholar in Mathematics and Economics at the University of California, and is a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), and taught portfolio management, asset allocation, and performance and risk analysis at the San Francisco CFA Institute. He first spent 20 years in conventional finance, working for a company that builds quantitative models for equity and fixed income markets around the world.

Now, if you form your expectations based on that history, though, I think you will be greatly disappointed. You are setting yourself up for a major disappointment if you think that the stock market will go up 10, 15 percent every year from now on.” SuperNova #4. “A “Regenerative Investment” is for people who feel particularly motivated to address a particular issue, and that the best way to address that is by supporting a business that is raising capital. Where they're not that concerned whether the money comes back, because they're really concerned about what the business could solve, if it succeeded.” Aha! Moment: “My aha! moment was understanding the extent to which financial returns can be extractive… To realize how our investments are shaping the world we live in.”  Worst Career Moment: “My worst career moment came while I was trying to serve our clients, including environmental foundations to whom I had donated. I realized that the portfolio we were managing was investing in things that destroyed the forests in the Borneo and the habitat of the orangutan.” Best Advice He's Ever Received: “Don't believe in everything you think. Our minds, sometimes, can play tricks, and to question one's own belief system and conclusions can be very helpful. So I have a very skeptical approach to what my mind is thinking, making sure that it is not just playing tricks on me.”  Personals Habits that Contribute to Success: “As part of my meditative practice, I go to the garden and gather my greens, wash them, and prepare my salad in the morning.”  Internet Resource: Dr. John Campbell in YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Campbellteaching/videos  Book Recommendation: Sapiens: A Brief History of Human Kind by Harari Yuval Noah Magic Wand: “I would give the vaccine to everybody in the world right now and then the pandemic will be over in three weeks.”  WTF or F: “I used to spend the summer in the mountains. I remember we were camping somewhere and we were hit by this amazing lightning storm. When you're very close to a bolt of lightning, the sound and the light come at the same time, and they are absolutely explosive. We were going through that for the whole night. I thought we were gonna get fried, but we survived somehow (although we got very wet).”  One Unique Tip Tool or Tactic that People Need to Know but Don't: “I think what a lot of people don't know is how much their investments are affecting their life, not understanding that our investments really shape the world we live in. So, if we don't like what we see, then look at your investments and make sure that you're not participating in the problems you would like to see solved.

Renowned activist Winona LaDuke reflects on the power of an earth-based economics in a moment on our planet that is known in indigenous circles as 'the time of the seventh fire.' She asks the question, what are YOU going to do right now to heal our relationships with life, and are you going to choose the path of regeneration or destruction. Her talk comes to us from the organization, Slow Money. In part 2 of the show, we hear about how kids defy their parents by wearing masks, how basketball players show up in solidarity for Black lives, and how a leader clinging to power and position for 25-years in Belarus is on his way out, all in the Nonviolence Report with Michael Nagler.

The speed of growth in an economy and the rate of inflation is driven by how much money is in circulation and how quickly its changing hands. Steve Keen says we need to add the change in debt to Milton Friedman's formula. As he discusses with Phil Dobbie, that would explain why the velocity of money has decreased since the eighties, even though the supply has been up and down, along with economic growth and inflation. So how important is the velocity of money and why is it frequently ignored? Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022. Visit acast.com/privacy for more information.

Donate to The Permaculture Podcast Online: via PayPal Venmo: @permaculturepodcast In this episode guest host David Bilbrey sits down with Jacqueline Smith, the founder of Central Grazing Company, to talk about her entry into the world of animal agriculture, after having no previous experience with farming or even family ties to a farm or the land. They then talk about Jacqueline's experience building up Central Grazing Company, using a slow money loan, into a regional farm to consumer business. They close with her mission of using animals, agriculture, and business to create regenerative ecosystems. Find out more about Jacqueline and her work at CentralGrazingCompany.com. In addition to a link to that, you'll also find information on slow money and other organizations and movements mentioned during the conversation in the resource section below. -- Visit our Partner: North Spore Mushroom Company for all of your mushroom needs.

We don't have to follow the existing models or old ways of being. We can take inspiration to give it a shot, try something different, and maybe, just maybe, change our little piece of the world. I also always enjoy the conversation that David leads because of his interest in the intersection between permaculture, the land, and business, from his years studying our design discipline while working professionally in sales. How he asked questions like whether or not Jacqueline would want to take her company and make it a national brand, or keep it regional. Would they become an umbrella for others to work under, or simply as models to create other regional farm- to-consumer supply chains. How she became involved with and used slow money to build up Central Grazing Company. I compare that to how I would have spoken with Jacqueline, if I were in the host seat rather than David and how I imagine I would have focused more on her background and transitioning to farming, lessons learned from her first business, and how that influenced her ethical choices, like ensuring all the producers are animal welfare approved. David reminds me that we all have a voice and a perspective, and it is in dialog between ourselves, earth, other people, and the other-than-human, that a unique story arises. That by having the conversations, we elevate ourselves and the way we can communicate with one another, and live a richly rewarding life of interconnectedness.

Along the way they talk about the incredible impact of other thinkers on these ideas, include Wendell Berry, Wes Jackson, and E. F. Schumacher, author of Small is Beautiful. In the post conversation interview I spend a few minutes looking at the judgement-free way that Permaculture allows us to best use our resources, especially being able to vote with our money, to have an impact on what we are able to do. By taking these kinds of actions each day we are able to decrease the size of our integrity gap and live in ever greater service to Earth, ourselves, and each other.

Since Woody Tasch originated this idea in the late '00s, they have moved $50,000,000 between individuals for their projects, with a loan failure rate less than traditional loans. Nancy shares her experiences connecting with farmers so they can grow their operations in Kansas, and the impact that is having on neighbors and agricultural practices. By creating new farming markets, they create new opportunities for current and beginning farmers, whether this is their first year or fifth generation in agriculture. If you are in the Lawrence, Kansas area on September 22, 2016, you can join Nancy and Slow Money Northeast Kansas and hear Woody Tasch, Mary Berry of Berry Center, and  Byran Welch of B the Change Media for night discussing "Bringing Money Back Down to Earth." After that, on September 23 - 25, 2016, is Prairie Festival, a complementary event to the work of Slow Money, at The Land Institute. If you are able to attend either or these, please let me know about your experiences.
