In the Kitchen Call: Opportunity Areas for Funding & Collaboration in Regenerative Agriculture
October 11, 2023 @ 11:00 am – 12:00 pm PDT
These SAFSF member-only calls are designed to evoke the warmth, nourishment, and welcomeness you feel when you are “in the kitchen”. Join fellow SAFSF members for bi-monthly calls to learn about each others’ work, discuss various topics, and build community.
Join fellow SAFSF members to hear from Josh Cavanaugh, trustee at the Russell Family Foundation, as he shares his research around areas of opportunity for funding and collaboration in regenerative agriculture.
Through 25 interviews with practitioners to understand capital needs and constraints, and with values-aligned funders (including several other SAFSF members) to understand interest, decision-making factors, and any present barriers to engagement, his research identifies pressing needs in the regenerative agricultural space: supply chain services, land access, and transition financing. This conversation will seek to illuminate the identified areas for investors and grantmakers where engagement will enable the transition to regenerative.
Following his sharing we’ll have plenty of time for questions, reflections, and discussion on the topic.
This is a free event available to SAFSF members. Registration is required.
