Our Approach

We help landholders establish their own carbon projects

Why we started

CFF was created to support Australian landholders in getting involved in the carbon credit market with an alternative approach, helping them earn their own Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs). Our team is made up of passionate environmental experts who are committed to tackling climate change and protecting biodiversity. We offer practical solutions and expert advice to help landholders build a sustainable future for their land and the ecosystems around them.

Our vision and values

Landowners keep 100% of the credits

We believe landholders should reap the full rewards of their hard work. That’s why we don’t take a share of your carbon credits.

Led by environmental experts

With years of environmental expertise, our team is driven by a genuine passion for restoring Australian landscapes, putting purpose ahead of profit.

Fee-for-service

We allow you to tailor your carbon project package, so you only pay for the services you need.

No lock-in contracts

With CFF, there are no long-term commitments. You can stop at any time and only pay for the services you’ve used.

Not-for-profit

All the money we earn gets put back into helping other landholders start their carbon farming journey.

”

CFF has extensive knowledge and experience, gained from years in the field. Most importantly, they genuinely prioritise the best outcomes for our project. No conflicts of interest, no corporate motives. ‘Your land, your profits’, they actually mean that. From the start, their advice gave me full confidence in their expertise. I appreciate having one main contact who’s dedicated to us, while also bringing in other experts as needed. This approach builds my confidence in the whole team.
