Our projects
Microbiome Learning:
Why Healthy Soils Matter
A healthy soil microbiome forms the foundation for thriving ecosystems, food security, and climate protection.

Enhancing Soil Fertility
A vibrant microbiome improves nutrient storage and water retention, supporting soil health.

Fostering Biodiversity
Healthy soils underpin the well-being of plants, animals, and humans alike.

Climate protection
Carbon-rich soils sequester carbon and bolster agriculture's resilience to extreme weather.
Our microbiome education project raises awareness about the vital role of diverse, site-adapted microbiomes while promoting hands-on practices and experiential knowledge.



Observation and Learning
Pioneering farms serve as learning hubs, demonstrating steps toward cultivating diverse, site-adapted soil microbiomes.
Goals of the Pilot Projects:

Development and Implementation
Creating site-specific composting and
fermentation methods.

Building a Living Microbiome
Establishing vibrant microbiomes to enhance soil fertility and resilience.

Scientific Monitoring
Assessing impacts on biodiversity, soil quality, and crop yields.
These pioneering farms are living classrooms for other farmers, showcasing practical steps toward regenerative agriculture and inspiring a shift to sustainable practices.
