Producer Profiles
Sledge Taylor | Buckeye Farms
“If you are looking for a reason not to try something, you can always find a reason. But if you want to make something work, it will work. It's all about mindset. Conservation and regenerative agriculture is no different.”




READ SLEDGE’S STORY
Sledge has been farming his land in Como, MS for decades, and has been using regenerative practices since the 1980s.
Sledge deserves to be adequately compensated for the ecosystem services created by the voluntary conservation practices on his farmland - and so do the millions of other producers across the United States who practice stewardship of our land and natural resources.
