The Squirrelry

Got a free weekend to start an organic garden? No green thumb required. Just share you email below and we'll send you the step-by-step guide.

What if you could plant something besides a tree to offset your carbon footprint? Did you know that regenerative gardens can help trap carbon in the soil, they are a serious weapon in the fight for the health of the planet and everyone on it. Even if you have a lawn you want to keep and allow it to grow longer, we're talking 3-4 inches, will allow the roots to grow deeper, require less water and build carbon stores in the soil.

What if your food could be nutritious and clean, without the hormone-disrupting insecticides, nutrient-transport destroying fungicides & tilling or weed killers? Our goal is to help 1,000,000 people start a regenerative garden that will help pull carbon out of the air and put it back in the soil. All while growing nutritious food without the chemical fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides.

Why did we even have the idea to plant trees in the first place? Do we have any proof that this works in the first place? Yes, it's called the Azolla Event and it happened in the Arctic Ocean over a period of 800,000 years. When the Arctic was much warmer but had a fresh water layer on top of salty water so the Azolla that died didn't decompose and release the carbon back into the atmosphere, like it does everywhere else. Instead it sunk and fossilized, turning the bottom of the Arctic Ocean into a carbon storage container. This effect crashed the existing carbon cycle because it sunk so much carbon.

Now I'm NOT suggesting we try to crash our current carbon cycle but I am looking at how much of an impact we can have. The Arctic Ocean covers 3% of the surface of the earth. Humans are estimated to cover 1% of the land area (30% of earth's surface), which is only 0.3%. But humans have impacted 10-14% of earth's land area, which is 3% of earth's surface.
