Training teams in the mindset and principles of regeneration

Case study · The New Zealand Merino Company

ZQRX Certified Regenerative Wool Index

Nicole was the scientific partner and curriculum developer for the core team during the design and rollout of the ZQRX Certified Regenerative Wool Index. ZQRX is a regenerative agriculture index that helps farmers work with nature to continuously improve human, animal, and environmental outcomes.

When the program launched, half of New Zealand's high country farmers signed up, committing over 5 million acres to a regenerative challenge. It enables farmers to go beyond sustainability by deeply understanding the complex interactions between their livestock, soils, climate, ecology, and community.

"Thank you for the inspiration & mentorship you provided – this was truly fundamental in the development of the program and the success we have had to date."
— Monica Schwass, The New Zealand Merino Company Limited

Case study · Intertribal Agriculture Council

A partnership since 2020

Since 2020, Integrity Soils has partnered with the Intertribal Agriculture Council (IAC) on collaborative trainings and on developing curriculum and processes that deepen the organization's vision and mission. IAC is tasked by its 574 federally recognized member Tribes to advance their agricultural priorities on more than 56 million acres of land.

"Normally reserved for Tribal Leadership, or even Secretaries of Agriculture; Nicole's keynote address has generated more energy than any we've had during my twenty plus years with the IAC. Her willingness to help rebuild our former relationship with our ecosystems; starting from where they are at now, and doing so in a way that inspires and enables the adoption of better soil health practices cannot be matched.

We have long searched for the right fit for delivering this important message to Indian Country, and Nicole is the only fit for our needs. Her willingness to help our producers envision a brighter future through soil health can not be matched."

— Zach Ducheneaux, Former FSA Administrator and Executive Director, IAC
"Nicole and Meagan are truly one-of-a-kind facilitators—innovative, impactful, and deeply inspiring. Their approach to leadership development is unparalleled, helping you unlock your full potential by sparking curiosity and self-discovery. Their thoughtfully designed methods empower you to embrace your unique brilliance and step confidently into your role as the change-maker this world needs."
— Kelsey Scott, Chief Strategy Officer, IAC
