Really exciting times at Standard Biocarbon, with our new strategic relationship with Read Custom Soils. Check out this innovative application of biochar in a Myiawki (pocket) forest in Plymouth MA led by AD Makepeace.
On Earth Day 2024, A.D. Makepeace Companies, in partnership with Sustainable Redbrook, launched an innovative afforestation project in Massachusetts. This project, focused on creating a Miyawaki forest at Redbrook, involves planting over 300 native plants as part of a broader effort to restore depleted land, enhance biodiversity, and increase carbon sequestration. The initiative highlights the collaboration between Standard Biocarbon and Read Custom Soils, combining advanced soil blends with biochar to rejuvenate the local ecosystem.

Exciting to be involved with adressing this huge issue.
Unity, Maine has become the center of a groundbreaking research project aimed at introducing biochar into PFAS-contaminated soil to reduce crop uptake and leaching of PFAS into groundwater, as well as improving soil health. Northern Tilth, LLC, working with Hunter Farm and Purdue University, is leading the study, which has been actively underway since October 2023 and is expected to conclude in June 2026. The research explores the utilization and effectiveness of biochar incorporation into PFAS-contaminated soil at Hunter Farm, aiming to reduce PFAS uptake and improve overall soil health. The project is titled “Biochar Use to Reduce Crop Uptake of PFAS and Improve Soil Health.” Read more below!
