Requests for Funding
The Savory Institute is not a grant-making organization, so if your request is for funding to support a project, farm, business, documentary, etc. then we must respectfully decline.
Requests for Partnership
There are specific instances where the Savory Institute and/or the Savory Foundation may engage in partnership with other organizations. Specifically, Savory is interested in partnerships that allow us to implement more large-scale grassland regeneration projects, so organizations who have access to capital and/or who have relationships with farmer/rancher/pastoralist communities would be ones that we would be interested in speaking to. If you believe your request fits these criteria, you can submit your idea on the Savory Foundation interest form.
Requests for Implementation Support (e.g. Training)
The Savory Institute's global network of Hubs offers Holistic Management training and implementation support, as well as EOV verification and other related services, to land stewards in their regions. Savory Hubs serve as regional centers of excellence in regenerative agriculture, providing hands-on training, workshops, and community support tailored to the specific ecological and cultural contexts of their regions.
We highly recommend contacting your local Hub for any type of hands-on support, coaching, training, or consulting that you may need. You can find a map of all Savory Hubs with contact information here.
Other Types of Support
While there are many admirable pieces of work that may be complementary or even synergistic to our work, it is not possible for us to engage with all incoming inquiries. That said, the Savory Institute can support you with your regenerative agriculture endeavors through a variety of resources, training, and community support mechanisms designed to empower farmers, ranchers, and pastoralists in regenerative practices. Here's how Savory can assist you:
- Training and Education: Savory offers a range of online courses and self-paced modules to help you understand the fundamentals of regenerative agriculture and Holistic Management. These educational resources are designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to implement regenerative practices on your land.
- Hub Network: The Savory Institute's global network of Hubs offers local training and implementation support. These Hubs serve as regional centers of excellence in regenerative agriculture, providing hands-on training, workshops, and community support tailored to the specific ecological and cultural contexts of their regions.
- Accreditation: For those interested in deepening their engagement or becoming professionals in the field, Savory offers pathways to become an accredited Hub, Educator, or an EOV Monitor or Verifier. These roles are crucial in expanding the reach and impact of Holistic Management globally.
- Resources: Savory's Library provides access to a wealth of science, case studies, media, and more, supporting evidence-based practices in regenerative agriculture. Additionally, Savory's blog offers the latest updates and insights from the field.
- Community Support: By becoming a member of the Savory Institute, you join a community of like-minded individuals committed to regenerative agriculture. Membership offers monthly support, exclusive perks, and the opportunity to be part of a global movement towards sustainable land management.
