From Policy to Procurement: The EU Buyers’ Club (Carbon Farming) Workshop

Join us in Brussels on April 15 to lay the foundation of an EU Buyers' Club (Carbon Farming) and become a founding partner shaping the future of the European CRCF carbon farming market.

This landmark event lays the foundation for a voluntary, industry-led coalition to coordinate demand and accelerate high-impact carbon removal projects across borders.

Although the Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF) establishes the regulatory framework, a stronger demand signal is needed. An EU Buyers' Club (Carbon Farming) would align EU ambition with corporate readiness and unlock investment into Regenerative Agriculture at scale.

You will engage in a hands-on workshop to co-create and test pilot rules across 3 interactive workstreams.
