BIOCHAR
ENRICH YOUR SOIL HEALTH WITH BIOCHAR
Biochar is a charcoal-like substance used to dramatically enhance soil quality to grow nutrient-dense plants. Mix the pyrolyzed biochar with your soil to improve soil porosity and microbial activity, increase water retention, accelerate composting, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, sequester Carbon and Nitrogen, remediate pollution, and regulate soil pH.
DID YOU KNOW? Biochar is significantly more powerful and longer-lasting than common chemical fertilizers. This regenerative farming additive has been used by indigenous Amazonians for over 2,000 years and is recently gaining in popularity due to the promise it shows in strengthening crop yields and mitigating climate change through carbon sequestration.
