Rethinking Agriculture, Rebuilding Ecosystems.
We equip individuals with the skills, knowledge, and networks needed to build viable agricultural businesses.
Headquartered at White Oak Pastures in Bluffton, Georgia, CFAR’s programs allow participants to learn alongside farm managers and operators who have spent decades implementing regenerative systems to restore animal, plant, and human ecosystems that nourish our communities.
CFAR’s instruction is grounded in real operations, real constraints, and real outcomes; not abstract models.
"The best thing a herdsman can put on his animals is his eyes and the best thing a land steward can put on his land is his feet."

"Your focus on water brought me so much joy! I have been working on centering water more in our regen ag approach, so we can celebrate the way that the principles help us positively impact water and help keep it clean, abundant and cycling the way we need it. You all shared the message I’ve been working to convey in such a powerful, inspirational way, and I learned SO much about how to help people understand it."
Rachael Stewart, Southwest Black Ranchers Association
"You reminded me that we don’t just have to try to avoid disaster or reduce harm, but that we can strive to build a world that’s full of beauty, fun, joy, connection, and all other good things, including hard work."
Margot Conover, General Mills
"At times, the work we’re doing can feel so big and overwhelming, and it’s easy to lose sight of the world we’re trying to create when you get on the doom scrolling treadmill of climate apocalypse. It was so rejuvenating to return to the source of inspiration! I so appreciated that you are creating that world that’s teeming with life in every way, and resulting in so many positive externalities like the town of Bluffton coming back to life, people finding love with like-minded folks on the farm, native plants and birds coming back to your perennial pastures, and your family coming together to bring this vision to life unto the 6th generation.
