A more in-depth presentation on Slow Money at the Bellevue Grange (1050 Tollman Creek Road) on Sunday, June 7th from 2:00-5:00 pm. The session on Sunday will focus on steps that the Ashland community can take toward building a local farm- and food-based economy, and a sliding scale of $5-$25.00 fee for participation is requested as a donation for use of the Grange.Inquiries into the Nature of Slow Money presents the path for bringing money back down to earth—philosophically, strategically and pragmatically, and with an entrepreneurial spirit that is informed by the work of thousands of CEOs, investors, grant-makers, food producers and consumers who are seeding the restorative economy. The months and years ahead will surely see a flood of books proposing micro- and macro-economic fixes to the financial crises of the day. Inquiries into the Nature of Slow Money brings a different vision—a meta-economic vision, looking above the top line and below the bottom line, a new way of seeing what is going on in the soil of the economy. This is the path towards a financial system that serves people and place as much at it serves industry sectors and markets. This mission emerges from Woody Tasch’s decades of work as a venture capitalist, foundation treasurer, and entrepreneur. His explorations shed new light on a truer, more beautiful, more prudent kind of fiduciary responsibility, a fiduciary responsibility that is not stuck in the industrial concepts of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, but which reflects the new economic, social and environmental realities of the 21st century.
