• Regenerative Ranching

    Regenerative ranching is a holistic approach to livestock management that focuses on restoring and enhancing the health and biodiversity of the land while producing food and other agricultural products.

Item 1 of 1

Hosted on ranches across Texas, SPI’s in-person workshops offer hands-on training for ranchers interested in exploring or enhancing their regenerative practices.

Workshop topics range from “Conserving Water & Building Soil with Regenerative Agriculture” to “Increasing Profitability Through Adaptive Grazing” and “Regenerative Ranching to Restore Biodiversity.” These 1 or 2-day workshops are held on ranches already implementing regenerative methods, providing real-life examples of success.

Led by an experienced educator and designed for groups of 25-30 producers, each in-person workshop includes a tour of the operation with the ranch owner, in-depth lessons, and hands-on demonstrations. Participants also have the opportunity to connect with local producers and share insights and experiences.

Key principles and practices that define regenerative ranching:

We are honored to partner with two organizations, Holistic Management Institute and the National Audubon Society, to bring their knowledge and expertise to select SPI workshops.

Holistic Management International (HMI)

HMI is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and teaching holistic management practices. These practices help farmers & ranchers make more informed decisions by considering the interconnectedness of the land, the animals, the people involved, and the financial aspects of the operation. It focuses on creating systems that are regenerative and resilient, fostering long-term sustainability for both the land and the livelihood of the farmer or rancher.

National Audubon Society

Dedicated to protecting birds and their habitats, the National Audubon Society employs science, advocacy, education, and conservation efforts. The Audubon Conservation Ranching Program aims to stabilize declining grassland bird populations by assisting farmers and ranchers in promoting biodiversity and improving ecosystem functions through sustainable grazing practices.
