Member Networking
The Australian Holistic Management Co-operative has a commitment to create
environmental and economic benefits for its members, by bringing together a
networked community involved in regenerative agriculture and Holistic
Management practices. Through the Co-op, members are able to access ecological health monitoring and branded promotion of regenerative
produce, as well as take advantage of mentoring, a global community,
conferences, field days, training and education.
Mentoring
AHMC members are able to receive mentoring and support around Australia, not
only from the Co-op's highly experienced educators, but also from each other,
as a group of ecologically-aware producers with diverse family lives, varying
levels of experience and different types of produce.
Conferences
The AHMC holds Farming Matters Conferences, and members receive concessions on
attendance fees. Speakers are local and international experts, and
the events are attended by government groups, researchers, and supply chain
businesses. See
Farming Matters 2021: For our Love of the Land
Field Days
AHMC Conferences are followed by a day of trips to regeneratively farmed
properties surrounding the conference location. Field Days are also held
throughout the year at member sites, and offer great opportunities to learn
more about regenerative practices and network with other AHMC members.
EOV Training
AHMC trains EOV monitors to two proficiency levels, Short (STM) or
Long-term Monitor (LTM). Courses include lectures and field work,
then field practice continues until accreditation is
achieved. If you are interested in training as an EOV monitor,
please see the
EOV
Monitor Expression of Interest form.
Holistic Management Education
AHMC also provides information for members on
Holistic
Management education, available in many
locations around Australia from a group of accredited educators, see
