The Yolo Carbon Farm Partnership is hosting a two-part Carbon Farming workshop series to showcase on-farm strategies to improve soil health and increase the amount of carbon stored in plants and soil. The Yolo Carbon Farm Partnership is a collaborative between the The Carbon Cycle Institute , The Center for Land-Based Learning , Yolo Land Trust , and Yolo County Resource Conservation District.
The two-part series kicks off with an online webinar on February 22, 2024 from 10 AM to 11:30 AM. The introductory webinar will feature an overview of carbon farm planning including introducing the typical components and associated tools. Funding sources for implementing carbon-beneficial practices will be highlighted, and partners will discuss the logistics of working on these plans and implementation. The webinar is followed by an in-person field day on March 7, 2024 at the Center for Land-Based Learning’s The Maples Farm in Woodland, CA. The in-person field day will dig deeper into the planning and practice of carbon farming featuring practices implemented at the Maples Farm.
