Woody Tasch, author of “Slow Money: Investing as if Food, Farms and Fertility Mattered” will present his new book, followed by a book signing.

Monday, March 16, 7 p.m.

Portland, Oregon

“Slow Money” investigates a new strategy for investing in local food systems. Woody Tasch asks:

* Could there ever be an alternative stock exchange dedicated to slow, small, and local?
* Could a million American families get their food from CSAs?
* What if you had to invest 50 percent of your assets within 50 miles of where you live?

Such questions are the first step on our path to a new economy and a new culture.
