Join us for 3 days of hands-on training in Creston, covering topics such as living compost, microbes, soil health, animal integration, and regenerative design.

Over the past few years, I've had the privilege of learning from and collaborating with Glen and Kathy Beaton of Stonecroft Farm. Recently, they joined me in a session, sharing their work with a group of producers in the prairies.
