Local Food, Local Money: FarmWorks Gentle Dragons Panel with DeeDee’s & Good Robot

February 17 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Attention: Nova Scotians who care about local food —

FarmWorks is hosting one of their “Gentle Dragons” info sessions.

Translation: local food businesses tell their story, the room asks questions, and you walk out actually understanding what FarmWorks does (and why it matters).

Panel:

  • Lindsay MacPhee (Owner, DeeDee’s Ice Cream)
  • Linda Best (FarmWorks)
  • Joshua Counsil (Co-Founder; Director of Marketing & Communications, Good Robot Brewing)

FarmWorks has loaned $11.8M to 182 food-related startups and expanding businesses across Nova Scotia.

Every $100 share invested in FarmWorks helps fund another one. And for eligible investors, there’s a 35% Nova Scotia Equity Tax Credit (with potential additional credits later).

If you’ve ever complained about:

  • food prices
  • supply chains
  • “why don’t we have more local ____”

…this is a good place to start.

Free • No tickets • RSVPs appreciated via email or Facebook Events page (helps us plan seating)
