Restoring Land & Building Legacy

November 15-16 at Sunrise W Land & Cattle.

Join us in the heart of Texas at Sunrise W Land & Cattle — a veteran-owned, multi-generational, passion-driven regenerative ranch.

Regenerative agriculture works with nature by fostering natural patterns and rhythms. Over and again, it has assisted landowners in improving their soils, strengthening the health and vitality of their crops and animals, and increasing the profitability of their businesses. The regenerative model is an excellent way for producers to leave the land better than they found it for future generations.

Understanding Agriculture is a leader in training farmers and ranchers globally to build on-farm resilience using time-tested, natural methods - while minimizing the cost and negative side-effects of many conventional techniques and synthetic inputs. Join us in the heart of Texas at a beautiful family-operated ranch in November as we learn from Understanding Agriculture consultants on:

• Basic regenerative principles and how to implement them
• Adaptive grazing
• Multi-species vertical integration
• Outcompeting invasives naturally
• Portable water systems
• Vermicomposting to stimulate the microbiome and overall soil health
• Planning for an abundant future
