Are you interested in soil carbon projects, but don't know where to start? Then join us for a Soil Carbon Project 101 webinar, featuring a MaiaGrazing partner, CarbonLink.

In early September, we surveyed a segment of our grazier community to find out how we can support their journey to potentially participate in a soil carbon project. Based on the insights, we found that a majority of graziers were already invested in improving soil carbon as part of their grazing management. However, there were plenty of knowledge gaps around what is expected in a soil carbon project, and where to access trusted information.To support our community, we invited one of our soil carbon partners, CarbonLink, to host a 'Soil Carbon 101' session on 29th September. In this 45-minute live webinar, Andrew Gatenby, CEO of CarbonLink will provide an overview of soil carbon projects, share their success stories and answer questions from the audience.
