The Soil Wealth Capital Convening is an action-oriented gathering for land stewards and investors to showcase wins and identify investment gaps in food, fiber, and forestry system transformation. Distressed, rural areas of the Southeast have been overlooked for agricultural investments, yet there is a wealth of innovative, skilled land stewards seeking aligned capital to expand ecological practices and equitable value chains. This convening is a chance to bridge needs and support all the region has to offer.
Take action and celebrate with us this Earth Day in Durham, North Carolina.
This event is invite-only. Interested in being involved or know someone we should invite? Please let us know at lab@croataninstitute.org.
