Member Testimonials

  • We have invested in SOIL and attend the gatherings as part of our commitment to Climate Justice and to regenerative agriculture in particular. We believe that the environmental movement is the “great work” of our time, to quote Thomas Berry, and that SOIL is helping this in creative ways. The community that has formed around SOIL is wonderful and brings together great people working for the Earth in many different ways. Together we make decisions about loans, make connections, build community and try to make a difference for people working to produce regenerative, local, healthy food.

    Laura and Pete Terpenning

  • We joined the SOIL community when local friends introduced us a few years ago. It’s been rewarding to get to know Woody, Brian, Tana and all the amazing farmers we’ve met at the monthly social gatherings. Investing in local farms that are practicing regenerative agriculture by becoming a SOIL member is one of the best ways to combat climate change, right here in Boulder County.

  • SOIL Boulder has really opened my eyes to the invaluable work of the many creative and dedicated people who nurture our community with delicious, locally sourced foods. Supporting SOIL’s unique giving model is a very tangible way for me to show my appreciation and, most importantly, help them grow and thrive.

    Jill Hollingsworth

  • Local food is all about relationships. As is soil fertility. We need a new kind of funding source that supports both. It’s Slow Opportunities for Investing Locally.

    Brian Coppom

  • I’m a member of SOIL for many reasons! To name the top two: the premise and mission give me great hope, and it brings together a fascinatingly diverse and inspiringly dedicated group of people who I always learn from and enjoy spending time with.
