Step 2: Auction

You choose the payment levels at which you want to participate. Carbon credit buyers do the same. This determines the market price of carbon.

The first auction is in early 2021.

Step 3: Harvest Deferral

Over the annual contract term, you're responsible for harvesting less volume than you ordinarily would have, increasing the amount of carbon stored in the forest landscape.

Step 4: Payments

Upon verification of the results, you receive payments for the additional carbon on your property.
