Goals


SOIL HEALTH

1

Source Organic Fertilizer

Meet 75% of our nitrogen needs from natural materials by 2028.

Through The Soil Center, we are creating nutrient-rich compost, biochar, and worm castings to grow fruit with less carbon and more care.

  • Avoid commonly used synthetic fertilizers that produce greenhouse gases

  • Create nutrient-rich soil amendments that supply nitrogen to the soil

Increase Biodiversity

2

Increase soil biodiversity by 15% by 2028 compared to conventionally farmed land.

Healthier soil means healthier trees and a healthier planet, benefiting our food systems from roots to fruits.

  • Provide diverse, thriving microorganisms for the soil with products from The Soil Center

  • Boost tree health, productivity, and carbon storage with a rich soil biome

  • Regularly sample soil for microbial analysis

Establish Nutrient Testing

3

Launch a micronutrient density benchmarking program beginning in 2026.

  • Phase One: Test micronutrients in our regeneratively grown fruit to determine if healthy soil yields fruit with higher micronutrient density.

    Phase Two: If above hypothesis is correct, increase micronutrient density of the fruit we grow by using soil ingredients from The Soil Center

Sell Soil Amendments

4

Offer premium soil products to growers throughout our region by 2026.

  • Help outside farmers and growers improve soil health in their crops and orchards

  • Supply custom regenerative products from The Soil Center like compost, worm castings, and biochar, to improve soil health and boost plant growth
