On the physical side, DFSN will pursue decentralization projects like 50 Farms, which addresses multiple problems at once: creates a geographically distributed network of 50 farms doing CSA programs for healthy food supply and community engagement, improves long-term emergency preparedness, and provides both new farmer support and mentoring as well as monetary support of mid-size farms that are struggling.  We're also putting on a Food Summit in Nov 2023 that will take a whole-systems approach, bringing together a wide variety of local and regional representatives not only in food production, processing and distribution, but also in food-related areas like housing, water and governance. This creates a distributed network of relationships critical to solving the problem of boosting food production. \n\nOn the virtual side, we'll be building capacity for additional revenue streams to food producers through securitizing natural assets on the model of -- and in collaboration with -- organizations like Centree and Kolektivo. While this model has often been applied just to forests, we seek to expand it to regenerative agriculture, wild-harvesting and marine-based food production (including kelp farming), all of which can sequester more carbon than steady-state forests. In the long run we want to use this to support a localized digital currency that will keep value circulating in the community, and free up food producers from the debt cycle that is driving many of them out of business.\n", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectTwitter": "ync2020"}, "recipient": "0x4Be737B450754BC75f1ef0271D3C5dA525173F6b"}}
