The Slow Money Institute

The Slow Money Institute is a nonprofit organization that promotes investing in local, small-scale food and farming ventures. Its goal is to create sustainable, community-based food systems by encouraging investors to support small farmers and local food businesses through patient, thoughtful capital. The institute advocates for a more mindful approach to investing, focusing on long-term relationships and environmental health, rather than quick profits. By doing so, it aims to strengthen local economies, preserve farmland, and promote environmentally responsible agriculture, ultimately fostering a more resilient and connected food system.
