BioFarming Community

Embark on a journey of transformation with the Spokane CD’s Biofarming program.  Our mission is to usher in a new era of regenerative agriculture across the Pacific Northwest. What began as a goal to cut synthetic inputs by 50% has evolved into a passionate commitment to revive our soil ecosystem and reshape the farming landscape through community building, discussion, knowledge sharing, and risk reduction.

Empowering Change

The BioFarming pioneers are rewriting the future of farming. Fueled by a vision to reduce synthetics, they're taking bold steps to reclaim the land's health and vitality. Sacrificing convenience for a thriving legacy, they're championing a revolutionary path to reclaim profits and reconnect with the consumer.

The Power of Plants

Through years of dedicated on-farm research, the BioFarming program has developed two impactful strategies. The first involves experimenting with cover crops – integrating them within existing crop rotations to build nutrients and in some cases integrating grazing back onto the farmland. The second focuses on unlocking the hidden potential of photosynthesis. Utilizing new plant sap tests and detailed soil respiration tests, producers are using biological seed treatments and performing precisely timed micronutrient foliar applications to drive plant growth and build healthier crops.
