Will Ruddick is a founder of Grassroots Economics, an NGO empowering marginalized communities through community currencies. In "Food Forests + Community Currencies" they discuss using community currencies and syntropic agroforestry to lift up marginalized communities.

Syntropic agroforestry uses principles like soil cover, plant stratification, and succession planning to develop sustainable food forests. Community currencies help fund the creation of these forests and circulate value, like nutrients, within the community.
