Farming as a way of life — regenerative agriculture, education, and food systems rooted in community.

Rooted in regeneration. Strengthened by community. Sustained through learning.

We nurture the land through regenerative practices that return life to soil and restore ecological balance.

Through hands-on education and local partnerships, we help communities grow knowledge, skills, and resilient food systems.

Our work centers people and place — building networks that sustain farms, families, and future harvests.

This is farming — a living practice, a shared responsibility, a way of life.

This is Natural Farming Life.

Active Partnerships & Stewardship Practices

Natural Farming Life works through active partnerships to advance regenerative food systems, land stewardship, and community resilience. Current efforts include expanding farm infrastructure to increase food production for California schools, developing long-term conservation plans at the landscape scale, restoring riparian corridors and native plant systems to reduce erosion and increase biodiversity, and advancing fire resilience through cultural land stewardship practices that restore ecosystem health and reduce wildfire risk.

Our work is carried out in collaboration with public agencies, conservation organizations, Indigenous partners, and community stakeholders, with project-specific roles detailed throughout the site.
