Good to meet you!

Growing good food in good soil is what got The Good Carbon Farm going.

We’ve always been interested in growing food, so when we first learnt about biochar, we started making and using it in our own backyard. The results were impressive. And without being scientists, climate heroes or experts in anything, we unintentionally created a carbon sink at home using our own green waste.

We love the simple circularity of The Good Carbon Farm model: taking something that would otherwise go to waste, converting it to something useful, and putting it back into the ground, for good.

Good things don’t happen without good people. The Good Carbon Farm does more good with the support, skills, and goodness of others.
