Restoration Oaks Ranch was one of the first 99 farms in California to receive an incentive through the California Department of Food and Agriculture’s Healthy Soils Program (HSP). The HSP Incentives Program provides financial assistance for implementation of conservation management practices that improve soil health, sequester carbon, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. With this incentive, the Ranch created 11 oak tree planting sites to restore oak grasslands on the 955-acre property and layered compost on a 20-acre plot of blueberries.
