Carbon Farming Course

12/19/2014

Dear Carbon Farming Course friends,

We are writing to share the unfortunate news that all course workshops will be cancelled for 2015 due to significantly lower enrollment at this date then at equivalent dates leading up to previous courses. Based on our current level of enrollment, we cannot confidently expect to make the course work.

All course tuition and other payments will be refunded in the coming weeks - we appreciate your patience and understanding.

We'll be sending out a newsletter soon with information on other opportunities to learn from our trainers and sponsors in the coming months.

Beyond right now, our team will continue to develop educational events and cross-disciplinary outreach related to regenerative agriculture and carbon farming. We look forward to finding other opportunities to engage with you in this important work.

With gratitude and appreciation,
Connor, Ethan, Sean, Adine & the Carbon Farming Course Team

What farming practices can help stabilize the climate by sequestering carbon? Almost anything that builds soil organic matter can do the trick, but some sequester much more carbon than others. Even low rates of carbon sequestration can make a huge difference if practiced on enough farms. Here’s a typology and comparison of these systems.

“We keep the animals bunched up to generate kinetic energy in the land. Many people don’t understand the animals are moved two to three times a day,” Judy explained. “By grazing the way we do, we are building up the topsoil and marketing solar energy.” See the full article

“In the last 50 years, the regenerative agriculture movement has figured out how to build top soil thousands of times faster than is widely acknowledged. This information still hasn’t filtered to the rest of society, but there are practitioners around the earth doing it. One farmer figured out that by putting skim milk on the land from his butter operation he doubled biomass production in 30 days! Exciting things are happening.” Abe Collins
