Meet our Regional Fiber Alliance Partners

A Fibershed Initiative

Climate Beneficial™ Verified was established in 2020 by Fibershed, a non-profit organization that develops regional fiber systems that build ecosystem and community health from soil to skin.

Our verification program is designed to support farmers through holistic farm planning, technical assistance, and peer to peer farmer networking. We use on-farm soil testing, data collection, and farm visits to verify farming practices and outcomes across carbon, soil, water and biodiversity.
