First Stop: Myers Ranch
The Healthy Soil Summit Farm Tour will start with a visit the Myers Ranch in Williams, California to see different stages of their soil health transformation. We’ll visit their 450 acres of newly converted Certified Organic Walnuts and also an almond orchard that is farmed regeneratively and moving toward organic certification.
James Pingey will serve as the tour guide at this stop, and discuss the steps that were taken to build a soil health plan for Myers Ranch and eventually an organic transition plan.

The Center for Land-Based Learning works to to inspire, educate, and cultivate future generations of farmers, agricultural leaders and natural resource stewards.
