Trusted Carbon

Winfield Farms & Seed Ltd

Winfield Farms & Seed, located in Nobleford, AB, is helping fight climate change by using hemp to capture and store carbon from the atmosphere. They have registered with the Hemp Carbon Standard (HCS) to commit to 10 years of carbon sequestration, ensuring their efforts are real, measurable, and long-term. To ensure accuracy, HCS utilizes an advanced Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) system with precision remote sensing technology. This system precisely tracks how much carbon is stored in the hemp’s roots and biomass, providing accurate, verifiable, and transparent carbon offset data. Each credit is independently certified by Control Union, a globally recognized organization, guaranteeing the highest standards. By purchasing these credits, businesses and individuals can meet their environmental targets while supporting scientifically verified carbon sequestration and a circular economy.

Summary

Winfield Farms & Seed, a family-owned farming operation based in Nobleford, Alberta, has established itself as a regional leader in sustainable agriculture since its founding in 2010. Hemp, one of their rotational crops, plays a key role in soil regeneration, carbon capture, and sustainable agriculture. By cultivating hemp, they sequester carbon, restore soil health, and promote long-term environmental resilience.

Hemp’s deep root system stores carbon by depositing organic matter into the soil, improving long-term soil organic carbon (SOC) levels. As the roots decay, they lock carbon into the ground, enhancing soil fertility. The plant’s rapid growth allows it to absorb large amounts of CO₂ through photosynthesis, converting it into biomass. Its stalks, composed of up to 70% cellulose, retain carbon until they decompose or are processed into durable products.

Revenue from carbon credit sales is essential for Winfield Farms & Seed to invest in sustainable farming, expand operations, and implement new technologies that enhance carbon capture. Without this revenue, sustaining regenerative practices and scaling hemp acres would be limited.

Corporate buyers investing in Winfield’s carbon credits can be confident that their funding directly supports measurable environmental impact. The HCS 10-year carbon credits are independently verified, ensuring that carbon sequestration is additional—not just a result of traditional farming operations.

HCS’s advanced Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) system uses precision remote sensing technology to track carbon capture with accuracy and transparency while minimizing leakage. This rigorous monitoring process strengthens the credibility of Winfield’s carbon credits.

Beyond carbon sequestration, Winfield’s regenerative farming methods improve soil health, enhance biodiversity, and reduce reliance on synthetic fertilizers and chemical inputs. These practices create economic opportunities for local farmers, generating additional revenue to sustain their operations.

HCS Horizon credits align with global sustainability goals, including Climate Action (SDG 13), Life on Land (SDG 15), and Responsible Consumption & Production (SDG 12). These credits go beyond traditional environmental targets by supporting a circular economy and driving meaningful climate action.

Winfield’s carbon credits are more than just removal credits—they represent a commitment to regenerative agriculture, sustainable land management, and a healthier planet. By choosing these verified, high-impact credits, corporate buyers contribute to real, long-term environmental and economic change.
