Slow Opportunities for Investing Locally
This is What Regenerative Agriculture Looks Like
Building Success on the Farm with 0% Loans
Our mission is to ensure resiliency of our farmers and our planet by empowering local food systems
Here’s how it works:
Become a member of SOIL with a tax deductable donation of $250 or more. Then, members make 0% loans to local farmers and food entrepreneures, by majority vote- one member, one vote, no matter what the size of your donation. When loans are repaid, funds are recycled into new loans — a truly regenerative resource.
Our Progress:
To date, SOIL members have made charitable donations ranging from $250 to $50,000—except for farmers, who can join for $25. We have gathered to date over $750,000 from over 175 members. Additionally, five local businesses and an NGO have joined our O% FOR SOIL campaign.
With this funding, we have made thirty 0% loans totaling over $781,000!
Local food is all about relationships. As is soil fertility. We need a new kind of funding source that supports both.
