Paul Dorrance

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in my course. Through this educational opportunity, I am seeking to fulfill my mission to educate, encourage, and equip both new and seasoned farmers for success. These days, more and more people are actively seeking to source their food from eco-friendly, humane, health conscious, local farms, with the tidal wave of consumer demand only now beginning to swell. I believe that regenerative agriculture is the way of the future, and I want to help farmers prepare for a profitable future in their agricultural enterprise.
