Well, cat’s out of the bag! Our powerhouse Board Chair is retiring from his role as CEO of CoverCress Inc., and passing the baton to Jim Hedges, a longtime ag executive and farmer. We’re excited to welcome Jim back to STL and into the ecosystem, and to continue to watch CoverCress thrive. As Michael DeCamp has always told anyone who will listen, CoverCress’ success is a product of the STLMade ecosystem, and we hope to continue to support and partner with CoverCress in this next phase. And as for Mike, what can we say? 39 North would quite simply not be what it is today without Mike’s steady, strategic leadership and passion for getting the organization started, while actively serving as the CEO of CoverCress. He’s a shining star in the global AgTech sector, and we could not be more proud to call him STLMade. While Mike’s transitioning from his current role at CoverCress, he’ll be staying involved in leading 39 North and we are positive he’ll be making big moves for our region and for AgTech globally. Congrats, Mike! 39 North is excited to work with you in your next chapter! https://lnkd.in/guF6Fr_J

In her recently released TEDxStLouis Talk, Allison Miller, PhD, shares her dream: harnessing the power of perennial plants to create a more sustainable future for our food systems. “Can we reimagine agriculture where long-lived perennial crops grow together in mixtures that feed people, that rebuild soil, and that help the planet? I believe we can.” Tune in here to see why she believes this dream is within reach—and how you can be a part of making it happen: https://loom.ly/-qXfJW0
