Grazing and Soil Carbon Field Day at Hanaminno

Learn from award winning practitioners and industry experts

About the Event

Enjoy a day on-farm at Hanaminno with Atlas Carbon and Charlie & Angelica Arnott, to see how soil-carbon projects and nature-based grazing are building healthier soils, stronger businesses and more resilient landscapes. This field day is for anyone eager to explore how soil-carbon building strategies and regenerative grazing can deliver enhanced productivity, ecological health and new revenue streams.

Over the past 15 years, the Arnotts have transformed Hanaminno from a conventional, high-input operation into a holistic, biodynamically-guided mixed enterprise. Today, the property supports productive cattle and sheep enterprises and a healthy, resilient landscape that reflects the rewards of farming in partnership with nature. As long-term MaiaGrazing customers who have recently commenced a soil carbon project, the Arnotts continue to build on this foundation — enhancing productivity, biodiversity and long-term land health.

Why Attend?

  • See the grazing and soil-health enhancing practices and tools utilised at Hanaminno, including the changes planned and underway since their soil carbon project commenced
  • Hear from Charlie and Angelica Arnott about their journey — the challenges, lessons and opportunities of shifting from conventional agriculture to regenerative, biodynamic farming.
  • Engage with the Atlas Carbon and MaiaGrazing team and network with fellow graziers, advisors and industry specialists.
