Urban soils are often 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 store carbon and to host healthy vegetation.

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

Our “pre-planting process” rapidly improves soil quality and creates suitable soil conditions for planting vegetation, helping public administrations, designers and private landowners to improve soil health and reduce plant mortality during plant establishment, achieving forestation goals faster.
