Trenda Loftin is a real estate professional and co-founder of the compost coop.
Trenda has a deep passion for community building. This informs the work she does in real estate as she advocates for the right of individuals to reside in a place of dignity and sanctuary while building the foundation for a neighborhood.
Her professional roots are steeped in the theatre. She is also an award-winning consultant to theatrical companies with a focus on arts integrated social justice facilitation. The those of us who hail from an arts background, it’s no surprise Trenda has placed a high priority on inclusion and integration of solutions to address multiple challenges.
The Compost Cooperative is a worker-owned business model serving under-resourced individuals including those recently incarcerated.
In part I of our conversation we focused on the roots of our neighborhoods worse challenges. Our free-flowing conversation is inspiring and loaded with the kind of energy necessary for identifying and then addressing issues of race, class, gender inherent in our system.
