In this sixth and final episode of Batch & Scale, we're bridging the food divide by investing in equitable access. We are thrilled to close the series on healthy food financing with three guests rooted in real-world solutions.
[00:01:49] Segment 1:
Our first guest is Nancy Matsumoto, author of Reaping What She Sows, who offers insights on building resilient food systems based on cooperation and women-led initiatives. We discuss:
Why women have historically been central to these models
What makes a food system resilient
Short, transparent supply chains as the key to sustainability
[00:29:24] Segment 2:
Geoff Gilbert of Beloved Community Incubator discusses how community-led initiatives are confronting food inequality and economic disparities. We cover:
Worker-powered co-operatives
Organizing local initiatives directly impacts access to healthy food
[00:45:11] Segment 3:
Dreaming Out Loud Executive Director Chris Bradshaw gives us a tour of the newly opened Marion Barry Avenue Market. We've followed this project from concept to completion. Now, experience the market that was built with dedicated entrepreneurs, innovative financing, and strong community support.
All six episodes, along with show notes, resources, and links are available now. Thank you for joining us on this journey to explore the financial recipe for a healthier future!
