Course Overview
Holistic Financial Planning is a practical, cash-based planning process that helps you focus resources wisely, make profitable decisions, and strengthen the long-term health of your business and land.
Over eight weeks, you’ll learn how to build a financial plan that aligns with your ecological, social, and economic goals — ensuring that your decisions support both your livelihood, the land, and your farm business.
The process is designed to be simple, practical, and effective. It applies to any business, regardless of size, enterprise mix, or current financial situation.
