Workshops for Farmers
Resilient Soils: Strategies for Lowering Input Costs and Managing Weather Risks
Rising input costs and increasingly erratic weather patterns are putting immense pressure on regional farming businesses.
This intensive, one-day workshop moves beyond simply applying compost and other biological inputs, providing landholders with practical, science-backed strategies to restore true ecological soil function. By focusing on the essential living connections between microbes and the broader soil community, this shift embeds long-term resilience in their production systems against severe drought and flood events.
Partner with us to deliver an actionable, high-impact event that equips local growers with the tools to build natural soil fertility and safeguard their productivity.
Practical Drought Resilience: From Soil to Landscape
Help your landholders build long-term drought resilience from the ground up.
This practical, one-day workshop equips landholders to identify high-leverage opportunities across their landscape, starting with restoring the natural water cycle and rebuilding the soil's capacity to act as a living sponge.
With these low-cost foundations in place, participants learn how to evaluate and integrate targeted, capital-intensive interventions—such as keyline design and leaky weirs—for challenging terrain.
Deliver lasting regional impact with a hands-on event that provides participants with actionable plans and direct pathways to post-workshop technical support.
Resilient Farms, Resilient Landscapes
Support your local growers in building climate-resilient landscapes through our intensive two-day workshop. Landholders gain practical skills to repair the ecological systems supporting their food production. This direct shift lowers input costs, reduces production volatility, and builds landscape-scale resilience.
Partner with us to deliver an actionable, high-impact event that equips landholders with science-backed strategies for long-term farm viability.
The Climate Wheel of Fortune: Scenario Planning
Shifting weather patterns leave many growers facing decision paralysis, putting primary production businesses and community resilience at risk.
Partner with us to deliver an interactive, half-day Scenario Planning Workshop that turns climate uncertainty into proactive local action. This engaging session helps participants identify practical "no-regret" strategies - such as improving soil health and upgrading water storage - that safeguard food production regardless of weather extremes. Bring this high-impact event to your community to build local self-reliance and strengthen regional food security.
What People say about our Workshops
"Wendy shows how landholders small or large can adapt to a changing climate without breaking the bank by focusing on the fundamental ecological principles, helping people recognise the journey they want to undertake or clarify where they are at in this point in time.
She shows that to produce food we need to ensure the ecosystems supporting our production systems are functioning. A wonderful start to our 'RegenAG Mentoring Group' webinar journey."

"Wendy was key note speaker at our webinar 'Future Proofing Your Land'. Her excellent publication, “Eco-logical Farming Handbook” was the basis of her presentation. I was impressed with the time and effort Wendy put in to tailoring her presentation to cater for the needs of our audience. Over several meetings, Wendy fashioned a presentation that was well received."
"Wendy’s considerable knowledge of the subject and first hand experience really shone through."
