Due to high development pressure in the area and the thin financial margins of farming, her father was tempted to sell the farm upon retiring. Sandi and Sara, both determined to keep the land in farming, took advantage of at the opportunity to apply for a <a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/healthysoils\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Healthy Soils<\/a> grant in 2017, which will help them maintain a financially viable farming operation as they transition to certified organic management. Sandi sees the soil-building techniques they\u2019ll implement with their grant\u2014amending with compost, cover cropping, and planting a hedgerow\u2014as a strategy to reduce their long-term dependence on costly amendments while also enriching their soils (that are so sandy, she says it&#8217;s like walking on a beach) and sequestering carbon. <a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/HSPStory_McGinnisRanch.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read full story on McGinnis Ranch here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In addition to AMMP and Healthy Soils Program grantees, we also tell stories about the farmers, ranchers, and land trusts behind two other programs: the <a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/sweep\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">State Water Efficiency &amp; Enhancement Program<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/farmland-conservation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sustainable Agricultural Lands Conservation Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/climate-smart-agriculture-in-action\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read stories of farmers and ranchers leveraging state funds for important shifts toward climate-beneficial agriculture.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical Assistance Accelerates More Robust Adoption of Climate Smart Practices<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-9463\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/SWEEP-Profile-Photo_Pao-Yang-e1529339041230-225x300.jpg?resize=225%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/>\u201cWe couldn\u2019t have done the application without help from the University of California Cooperative Extension.\u201d<br \/>\n&#8211; Pao Yang, diversified Asian vegetable and herb farmer in Fresno County, SWEEP Participant<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>For a number of these farmers like Pao Yang (<a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/SWEEPStory_PaoYang.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read his story here<\/a>), Sandi and Sara at <a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/HSPStory_McGinnisRanch.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">McGinnis Ranch<\/a>, and others, access to state Climate Smart Agriculture grant funds would not have been possible without the support of technical assistance providers like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.carcd.org\/home0.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Resource Conservation Districts<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/ucanr.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">University of California Cooperative Extension<\/a>, and non-profit organizations such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caff.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Community Alliance with Family Farmers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncat.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Center for Appropriate Technology<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fishfriendlyfarming.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fish Friendly Farming<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For others, like <a href=\"https:\/\/calclimateag.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/HSPStory_JacksonFamily-SonomaRCD.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jackson Family Wines in their partnership with Sonoma RCD<\/a>, their projects would not be nearly as ambitious, robust, or implemented in such a scientifically rigorous manner.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe state\u2019s support for [the Healthy Soils Initiative] could be pivotal for California agriculture by improving both public understanding and offering examples of success to growers.

Many of the farmers we interviewed told us that the cost-share grant programs have enabled them to implement entirely new practices or immediately fast-track long-term plans to save water and energy, sequester carbon, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, build soil health, and otherwise make their operations more economically viable and environmentally sound.<\/p>\n<p>With more than 77,000 farms and ranches in California, less than one out of 100 operations are utilizing state climate investments. With California\u2019s unique context of ambitious climate-related goals and policies, we have an opportunity to rapidly scale up climate solutions\u2014and we will depend on the leadership of farmers and ranchers for the unique, powerful agricultural climate solutions at their fingertips.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Are you a Climate Smart Agriculture grantee and want to share your story with us?
