Carbon Club

In these days of emerging offset schemes, where emitters are enabled to buy credits and thus keep emitting, too much is written about national and international schemes and not enough (nothing?) about schemes to which conscientious individuals or small organizations could apply. Through our work at the farm, we have developed an understanding of our own carbon emission and sequestration, and it is our plan to launch a farm-scale carbon club, where our net carbon credit is offered for sale annually. This would probably be as a component of club membership, which would have other associated benefits (e.g. free visits to an open house, nut products). The concept is still under development, as is the carbon price.
