An amazing event with Darren
Doherty at the beautiful Ojai Foundation 600 acre site in the upper Ojai
Valley! (workshop, evening talk downtown Ojai)
More than just about agriculture, Darren's brilliant notion that by
rehabilitating large degraded landscapes which have proliferated across
our country in past decades, we could solve some of our most pressing
environmental problems.
Darren was with us in 2007 for a 6 day Keyline Design workshop, and last
year at the Bioneers Conference, but since he is from Australia, who
knows when you'll have the opportunity to see him again, so take
advantage of this visit that is a part of his current world
tour.

evening talk with Australian farmer, author, and internationally
recognized leader in regenerative agriculture, Darren Doherty, on
Thursday, September 11, 7pm, at the Ojai's Women's Club in
Ojai.
Part of the 2014 Regrarians World Tour, Darren Doherty shares his
vision of restoring degraded agriculture and other broadacre landscapes
found across the US and other parts of the world with regenerative
strategies for soil creation, water harvesting, and most exciting,
capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide (carbon sequestration) to help
address global climate change, using the microbiology of healthy
soils.
Regrarians (Regrarians = Regenerative Agrarians) is a term
coined by Darren to describe the serious and timely process of
regenerating, restoring, rehabilitating, rekindling and rebooting healthy
production landscapes across the planet. And not a moment too soon,
with California currently facing serious issues of drought, severe soil
loss and degradation, polluted waters, and potentially devastating
wildfires; all needing innovative solutions now.
Darren Doherty has extensive experience across the world in project
design, development, management & training. A career-long focus on
the profitable & regenerative retrofit of broadacre landscapes has
seen Darren acclaimed as a pioneer in this important field. He is
an internationally renowned fifth generation farmer, permaculture
teacher, author and trainer who has developed close to two thousand
projects in fifty countries and five continents. He created and
teaches Keyline Design®, Carbon Farming, Regenerative Agriculture, along
with the RegenAG® + Regrarians® course series currently used world
wide.
A panel discussion will follow the talk, facilitated by Leif Skogberg of
the Ojai Foundation, who will host a 3 day Regrarian Workshop with Darren
Doherty Sept 12th-14th. (see below for more information).
