About Grassroots Carbon: 

Grassroots Carbon (“GRC”) is the leading grasslands restoration and soil carbon storage company focused on empowering U.S. ranchers to implement regenerative land management practices on grasslands across the U.S.  By partnering with Grassroots Carbon, ranchers can generate additional revenue opportunities by entering into our carbon credit program.  In addition to enhancing soil health and promoting biodiversity, these regenerative practices have tremendous potential to combat climate change by drawing down and removing large quantities of atmospheric carbon dioxide into the soil. Grassroots Carbon is proud to have partnered with over 125 producers across 1.3 million acres in 19 states, to implement practices that restore grasslands, improve habit, build soil health and drive nature-based soil organic carbon drawdown through the healthy soils. 

We are on a mission to convert millions of acres of degraded grasslands into healthy, thriving ecosystems that sequester massive amounts of carbon and have notable partnerships with leading organizations, including Audubon Conservation Ranching, Texas Agricultural Land Trust, Understand Ag, and Colorado State University’s Soil Carbon Solutions Center to advance this mission. Built on a foundation of scientific rigor, quality, and transparency, Grassroots Carbon has secured long-term contracts with leading companies, including Microsoft, Nestle, Olipop, Marathon Oil, Shopify, and Urban Villages to reduce their carbon impact and reach their sustainability goals.
