About Grassroots Carbon

Grassroots Carbon is the leading grasslands restoration and soil carbon storage company that partners with landowners to implement and scale regenerative land management practices. In addition to enhancing soil health, promoting biodiversity, and improving water quality, these regenerative practices have tremendous potential to combat climate change by drawing down large quantities of atmospheric CO2 into the soil. Grassroots Carbon is proud to have partnered with ranchers across 1.6 million acres in 21 states to implement practices that restore grasslands, improve bird habitats, build soil health, and drive nature-based soil organic carbon drawdown through the healthy soils. Built on a foundation of scientific rigor, quality, and transparency, Grassroots Carbon has built strong partnerships with Audubon Conservation Ranching, Texas Agricultural Land Trust, Understand Ag, and Colorado State University's Soil Carbon Solutions Center while generating high-quality soil carbon drawdown credits for leading corporations, including Nestle, Microsoft, Shopify, Marathon Oil, H-E-B, Olipop, and Urban Villages, to offset their carbon impact and reach their sustainability goals.
