The Plus - Grassroots
By choosing to offset your carbon footprint with our Carbon Plus Credits you are choosing to support a sustainable grassroots business that is family owned and operated from the ground up. What separates The Carbon Farmer Inc. from other offset sources is the fact that we are involved with every step of the business; from the planting of the trees to the sale of the credits and the management of our Community Fund. In today’s world there are not many companies that can say that. We pride ourselves on the fact that our hands work the soil and plant our trees and those same hands will shake yours when you inquire about our business and perhaps even make the choice to purchase our Carbon Plus Credits. Don’t worry, we will wash off the dirt before we do!
However to assure Our Offsetters, we have gone out of our way to have third party expertise take care of critical business elements like our CO2 Storage Assessment. This allows us to set a new standard for transparency and accountability; ensuring a high quality product for Our Offsetters, while at the same time maintaining our grassroots. For all of the outside expertise we require, such as website development, we do all we can to support another grassroots business with the same principles as our own.
The Carbon Farmer Inc. also represents rural development. Today, rural areas across the country are trying to find new ways to retain economic drivers and the most important resource of all; its younger generations. As a young couple wanting to return to our roots, it is our hope that the success of The Carbon Farmer Inc. will allow us to do so. We also hope to breathe new life into our community through the use of our Community Fund and as being an example of farm diversification. The Carbon Farmer Inc. also represents progress towards a sustainable economy and that is certainly a goal worth supporting. This, combined with the other benefits listed under The Plus, makes the choice to become one of Our Offsetters even clearer.
