Down to Earth Markets was honored to present during the Entrepreneur Showcase at the 𝐅𝐎𝐎𝐃 𝐅𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐃 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔: 𝐄𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 & 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐅𝐚𝐢𝐫 hosted by Slow Money NYC on Tuesday! We shared our vision for a resilient regional food system, our role in New York’s evolving foodshed and next steps in the future of our company.
This year’s theme ‘Built On Purpose: Where Food Business + Capital Align’ brought together a fantastic field of mission-driven brands, local farmers, food entrepreneurs and impact investors. Attendees heard insights from an all-star lineup of experts, discovered and sampled products from the next wave of emerging food businesses, and connected with like-minded industry representatives.
It’s always inspiring to get together with people who are bringing big ideas to local food system building. We’re excited to see what comes out of this meeting of the minds!
With special thanks to the expert panel that responded to our presentation:
