PRESIDENT
Paul is passionate about regenerative agriculture and cannabis farming as well as investing in local community sovereignty. He currently lives in St. Paul, MN and is working in service to local sovereignty while investing in local regenerative farm projects with his Solo 401k.
Paul is deeply inspired by several books: Sacred Economics by Charles Eisenstein, Local Is Our Future by Helena Norberg-Hodge, The Soul of Money by Lynn Twist, Owning Our Future by Marjorie Kelly and Decolonizing Wealth by Edgar Villanueva. In the big picture he believes in what Charles Eisenstein calls The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible and investing in that. Paul sees this as investing in healing (starting locally).
VICE PRESIDENT
Darryl is dedicated to eradicating poverty through collective organizing. Raised in a low-income neighborhood, he went on to found a hedge fund, but later shifted to philanthropy, focusing on systemic solutions for poverty alleviation. His philanthropic initiative, End Poverty. Make Trillions., emphasizes empowering marginalized communities to create sustainable wealth.
He has authored two books: End Poverty. Make Trillions and The Language of Liberation: A Story and a Critique, which explores the relationship between language, power, and the pursuit of freedom.
Darryl dedicates much of his time to advocating for poverty eradication through a universal basic income set at the federal poverty level, ensuring everyone meets basic living standards. He also promotes building land-based communities that focus on regenerative food systems, aiming to create sustainable, resilient environments that provide for their inhabitants while restoring ecosystems. This approach integrates economic stability with ecological health, fostering both individual empowerment and community resilience.
SECRETARY
Steph is a regenerative farmer and educator at New Story Farm. Her main role is helping to manage livestock holistically, growing 80% of the food she eats while crafting herbal teas and medicine for her community, including the animals.
She loves to grow perennials and tree seeds to assist tree migration for the Central Minnesota region. Her journey on various farms and in intentional communities in the USA and Australia has afforded a rich education into what is possible.
Her hope is to inspire the next generation of good land stewards while empowering consumers with real food education.
