Support farmers with the first scalable, registry-issued carbon credits for agriculture. By adopting beneficial practices, farmers can reduce and sequester carbon dioxide, while enriching their soil. Your company can directly support the farmers starting to act on this unique climate solution.
Carbon credits produced through the Carbon by Indigo program meet the highest possible standards for impact measurement. That’s because we worked with the Climate Action Reserve and Verra to help develop the strictest soil methodologies on the market. Indigo is currently the only soil carbon program that meets these standards, ensuring that your climate impact is real and backed by the latest science.
Soil can hold billions of tons of carbon, but farmers have never been given a sufficient financial incentive to pursue climate impact. You can change that by helping growers adopt practices like cover crops and reduced tillage that improve the health of their soil, their bottom line, and the planet.
On her family’s farm in Ohio, Kasey uses digital technology and natural microbiology to enrich her soil and produce a healthier crop. They may be in their first year of using cover crops and no-till, but this experience with the latest tools serves them well as they implement regenerative farming practices and reduce inputs. They have already seen a large-scale weed reduction.
"Consumers are challenging our industry to do better, and we're answering that call."
After a long career in food supply “making breakfast cereal,” Mike Bretz came back to the family farm with an insight: agriculture offers one of the most immediate ways to address climate change. He had been listening to the book Dirt to Soil a dozen times while riding around in his tractor. Mike jumped in, feet first: all 500 acres into regenerative practices, planting cover crops last fall and going for another round this spring. He’s testing for water infiltration and carbon stocks in his soil come the summer, building on his soil organic matter and reaping the benefits.
"We just need to change our mindset and utilize what the earth gives us in agriculture. More carbon in the soil will create healthy soils, bring back the biology, and create a more resilient system. And while we are at it, we can help save the earth.”
A non-believer in the common phrase, “we’ve always done it this way,” fourth-generation farmer Adam Chappell saw rapidly-changing environmental conditions on his farm as an opportunity to change the way he farmed. He has planted cover crops, implemented a no-till system, ditched synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and focused on the health of his soil—which is now rich with carbon, earthworms, and life. Adam’s continually expanding adoption of regenerative farming methods not only improved his crops, but reduced his input costs and helped his farm become one of the top yielding farms in the area.
"We were going to change the way we farmed completely or we were going to change jobs. It was time to change the way we farmed."
Larkin Martin manages a family-farming operation in Courtland, Alabama, where she raises cotton, corn, soybeans, and wheat. Her cotton is now part of a sourcing collaboration with The North Face to craft clothes with regeneratively-grown materials. The premier outdoor apparel and gear brand is not only paying for sustainable and well-made raw materials, but also ones with a clear and strong history for end customers to appreciate.
Larkin sees the opportunity for farmers to generate carbon credits by using regenerative practices as a chance for farmers “to build a different kind of value on their operation than they have ever thought about before.”

As the first apparel brand to partner with Indigo, we are excited about the positive environmental impacts regenerative cotton production can have not only for The North Face products, but for our industry as a whole. Regenerative products have the ability to shift the industry from simply ‘doing less harm’ to actually replenishing or having a positive impact on nature and resources, and as a brand that is committed to protecting the outdoor places we love to play, we believe this is another critical step in addressing climate change impacts in our supply chain.
