CFF Reforestation Carbon Services

We can help get your reforestation carbon project set up and running successfully.

The CFF is a remote team that provides long-term support and services for the life cycle of a carbon project. We have a flexible feasibility, set up and ongoing project services that gives landowners the choice to use our remote services team as much or as little as needed.

We ensure our tailored reforestation feasibility assessments reflect the farmer’s capacity to either internalise tree establishment costs or outsource support. We provide introductions to foresters and options to verify their services for cost, quality, and compliance.

What is a Reforestation Project?

Let’s start with the basics.

A reforestation carbon project is when you plant, grow and maintain a permanent forest of native trees or vegetation on land where deforestation occurred over 5 years prior to the project starting.

Projects store carbon in trees as they grow, earning carbon credits over a 25-year crediting period. For every tonne of CO2 sequestered, you earn one carbon credit.

Some helpful resources to get you started.

What our mates are saying

"CFF gave advice that was in the interests of our business and the planet - without high pressure sales tactics. They are helping us jump the hurdle to get our projects going."

"It was really refreshing to get carbon farming advice that was so honest and clear. CFF's carbon heatmap gave me a quick helicopter understanding of the genuine carbon opportunity on my farm”

"The Carbon Farming Foundation's heatmap tool made it easy for us to review our portfolio of properties and home in on the areas that produce the highest carbon yields. This helped us in deciding where best to strategically locate a carbon farming project across our properties."

“CFF have provided the essential tools, resources, and support to build our understanding of carbon farming and developed our capacity to deliver our own projects. We are really excited to be working with them get our first tree planting project in the ground later this year”

“The CFF have provided practical and self-explanatory resources to get our project started. They broke down the design and planning stages of our project into a simple step-by-step process. This made it easy to for us to make decisions and engage local specialists in our area”

‘The CFF have been a valuable and knowledgeable specialist support, assisting in Gilmac’s introduction into potentially setting up and running a carbon farming project. CFF clearly understand the program and explained it well. The feasibility and heatmap really spelt out our potential returns on investment."

“The Carbon Farming Foundation has cracked the code with its do-it-yourself approach to carbon farming... Australian farmers have an exciting new opportunity to increase landscape health, farm resilience and profitability. The CFF is helping to illuminate the opportunity and to show how to use it effectively.”
