About Mike Thompson

Six generations of farming. One decision to do it differently.

$100 of your adoption goes directly to Mike Thompson — 
the day you adopt.

Mike didn't set out to farm regeneratively. He noticed it 
was easier to plant into ground that still had living roots 
in it. He kept going because it saved him money. Then the 
soil started changing. Water stayed longer. The land got 
more resilient. Six generations of Thompson family farming 
in West Texas, and this is the chapter where it all starts 
to turn.

Mike farms over 1,000 acres outside Littlefield, Texas — 
dryland cotton country where every inch of rain matters.

A typical carbon payment timeline:

Start

Farmer adopts regenerative practices: Cover crops planted, soil practices implemented, transition begins.

3 Months Later

Measurement & verification begins: Field data and practice changes begin being tracked.

9 Months Later

Registry review & credit issuance: Carbon credits move through verification and approval.

12–18 Months Later

Farmer finally gets paid: Traditional carbon programs often delay payment for over a year.

With Creekside

You adopt → farmer paid sooner: Your support helps move capital to farmers immediately.

  • No waiting.
  • No delayed payout.
  • No capital held up in the system.

$100 of every acre goes directly to your farmer — the day you adopt.
The rest retires verified carbon credits on your behalf. No waiting. No middleman holding the money.

This is the gap we're closing.

Adopt an Acre helps move capital to farmers earlier — so they can adopt these practices now, not later. $100 per acre goes directly to your farmer.
