Idea

Many chemical inputs once relied upon by growers & gardeners for fertility & disease control are now avoided due to fears about their impact on human & environmental health.

UK gardeners are driving this trend – 67% say they’re eco-conscious & 46% of this group use organic fertilisers.

Peat-based composts destroy natural, CO2-absorbing habitats & fuel the climate crisis.

Biochar (a type of charcoal) is a more sustainable & effective solution to peat & chemical products – it delivers comparable benefits and lasts far longer in the soil.

Carbon Gold’s organic products use biochar made from materials sustainably sourced and certified by the Forestry Stewardship Council. We enrich it with multiple strains of fungi, bacteria & minerals, which support healthy soil biology, the key to good growing.

Our methods are validated by scientific studies & commercial trials. We’re partnering with the Woodland Trust, are certified by the Soil Association & many others, and are proud to be a certified B Corp.

We generate sales via our website, horticulture firms, stockists (e.g. Mr Fothergills & Sarah Raven) & the sports industry, our Turf Improver was used at Ascot Racecourse & at golf courses. Our retail sales increased 253% from £77k to £272k in 2020 with our total revenue growing to £316K (P&L -£234K Sept '20)

We’re now raising funds to boost our marketing, international development & manufacturing
