Flagship Product

Biochar Soil Amendments

High-quality biochar combined with composted poultry manure and nitrogen-rich organic inputs to create a powerful biochar-based organic fertilizer. Restores degraded soils, strengthens fertility naturally, and reduces dependency on synthetic inputs.

Households cook with charcoal

Creating daily environmental harm for families across The Gambia who depend on wood-based charcoal for cooking fuel.

Women and children face disproportionate smoke exposure from indoor cooking fires — a silent public health crisis.

40+

Years of forest degradation

Despite a ban on charcoal since the 1980s, the forests of The Gambia continue to shrink year after year.

We built Biochar Soil Amendments and Green Briquettes as a direct answer to this crisis.

Green Briquettes

Our main venture producing eco-friendly cooking briquettes (GreenCOAL) made from sustainable agricultural waste. Clean, sustainable cooking fuel that burns longer, produces minimal smoke, and generates less ash than traditional charcoal.

2× longer burn

Burns Longer

Extended burn time means fewer briquettes needed — saving families real money every week.

90% less smoke

Minimal Smoke

Dramatically reduced smoke protects the respiratory health of women and children cooking daily.

Zero deforestation

Eco-Friendly

Made from agricultural waste — every briquette means one less tree cut down in The Gambia.
