Urban soil are generally degraded and lack a sufficient degree of health to function properly. This reduces their capacity to generate ecosystem services, in terms of fertility, biodiversity, water retention, capacity to stock carbon and to host healthy vegetation.

Through soil analysis and low-tech agronomic interventions we work to restore soil health, on areas of all sizes from small roadside beds to large green areas.

Our “pre-planting process” rapidly improves soil quality and produces a good soil basis for planting vegetation, helping public administrations, designers and private landowners to produce a better soil impact and lower the mortality factor during plant establishment, achieving forestation goals faster.
