FOMENT delivers customized, experiential consulting engagements to enable creativity, innovation, and cultural transformation within NETWORKS, teams, and organizations.
Our Experience
We have worked with for-profit, non-profit, and cooperative organizations, across a range of sectors from values-based finance, regenerative agriculture, climate, food, manufacturing, art & creative communities, and professional services.
Collaborative Facilitation Experiences
Over our 20+ years practicing a growing number of facilitation methodologies, we have developed a breadth and depth of experience that enables us to offer a unique set of tools, techniques, and frameworks to each engagement. Our partners and participants experience this in the ways we approach researching context, co-creating engagement design, and most importantly, in the present moment when the highest potential of a collaborative situation suddenly emerges and we act, like a perfectly placed needle in just the right acupuncture point.
Experience in Regenerative Agriculture Transition
Over the past 4 years our team has developed an in-depth understanding of the emerging regenerative agricultural landscape by engaging directly with:
> Over 100 farmers undergoing the on-farm transition,
> 20+ CPG brands actively building their regenerative supply chains,
> Aggregators and processors who are forming new partnerships,
> Soil scientists and technical advisors who are bringing the latest research to farmers,
> Certification programs that are creating innovative approaches to providing trust and transparency throughout these new supply chains,
> Federal granting organizations (RCPP, NRCS, IRA, etc.) focused on funding conservation practice adoption, and
> Regionally focused, supply chain development collaborations
