Our Mission
We aim to promote regenerative agriculture to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, aid in the development of new technologies, processes, and inventions to reduce greenhouse gases through collaboration with farmers, academia, government, industry, engineering, architectural and design firms.
Our mission is to promote greenhouse gas emissions reduction through regenerative agriculture; develop a demonstration farm for educational presentations, solutions, best practices. Involve farmers, universities, organizations, and industry leaders.
Our Method
Since we are based in the Midwest, we focus on agriculture, cattle and pigs. They produce the most GHGs of any segment of emissions producers — more than cars, trucks, planes, trains, cargo ships, and cruise ships combined. The good news is, there are known methods to change agriculture from a carbon emitter to carbon sinks through regenerative agricultural and grazing practices. This is the “low hanging fruit” in carbon sequestration.
We will develop a demonstration farm utilizing regenerative agriculture and grazing methods which will be available to farmers to see comparisons of crops, livestock and have conferences for information on the latest technologies and testing.
Our demonstration farm will exemplify best practices and be available for research from colleges and universities, and product developers.
Our People
These are the individuals that have the passion, drive, and commitment to create a better future.
