Help Reverse Climate Change

&
Soil Degradation

Leading scientists estimate that Earth only has 60 years of topsoil left— let’s change that. There are over 13 million acres of farmland in Arkansas. Every dollar you give treats one acre with Living Soil amendments.

 What We Do

The mission of The Urban Food Loop Project is to reverse the effects of climate change by reducing methane emissions from landfills and sequestering carbon on farms across the US. We divert food waste from landfills to be converted into biologically tailored Living Soil compost and compost tea. Our team works with farmers to apply Living Soil compost and compost tea on crop lands and pastures. Using Living Soil compost and compost tea increases farmers’ yields and profits, while decreasing farmers' reliance on tilling, synthetic fertilizers, and pesticides. Making and using Living Soil compost tea is a cost effective way to sequester carbon,  restore degraded farmland soils, and decrease greenhouse gas emissions. 

 

Why & How We Do It

 
 

Where We Started

Food waste and soil degradation statistics are why The Urban Food Loop Project launched. Learn about the niche market we created at the intersection of waste management, public policy, and agriculture.

Where We are

We are launching a capital campaign to build a “Living Soil” manufacturing facility in Little Rock that will transform agriculture in Arkansas and serve as a blueprint for creating climate smart soil amendments across the US.  

Where We Are Going

The Living Soil method will transform farms across the US and contribute to a healthier and more sustainable approach to large scale conventional agriculture.
