How we restore and safeguard.

A demonstration farm run with an EcoPlanet project community

Syntropic and regenerative farming

Empowering farmers to grow nutritious, diversified crops while restoring soil health through regenerative practices.

Rwanda, GhanaRead more

Working with communities in Rwanda and Ghana to grow diverse, nutritious food while restoring soil health and improving long-term productivity. Farmers develop practical skills in composting, mulching and natural pest management, enabling them to farm more sustainably and reduce reliance on costly inputs.

Beekeeping

Helping pollinators thrive.

Ghana, South AfricaRead more

EcoPlanet has established apiaries within project areas and communities in Ghana and South Africa. Bees support the pollination of native plants and food crops, helping ecosystems regenerate and biodiversity thrive.

Bamboo planted alongside indigenous trees

Integrated planting

Planting bamboo alongside indigenous trees to rebuild diverse, resilient ecosystems.

All projectsRead more

EcoPlanet combines bamboo with indigenous tree species to restore the structure, diversity and resilience of degraded landscapes. Existing native trees are protected and incorporated into the planting design, creating biodiverse ecosystems that provide richer habitats for wildlife.

Active monitoring

Combining technology and people to detect threats early and protect recovering ecosystems.

All projectsRead more

EcoPlanet uses satellite monitoring, staffed fire towers and cameras across our project areas to identify fires, illegal activities and other emerging threats. These systems support early detection and rapid response, helping safeguard biodiversity, restored landscapes and neighboring communities.

The black soldier fly project in South Africa

Black soldier fly

Turning organic waste into valuable resources for farming, food production and healthier soils.

Ghana, South AfricaRead more

EcoPlanet uses black soldier fly larvae to process organic waste that might otherwise be discarded. The larvae provide a protein-rich feed source for fish and poultry, while the remaining frass is used as a natural soil amendment. This circular system reduces waste, recovers valuable nutrients and supports more sustainable local food production in Ghana and South Africa.

Worm castings and vermicompost harvested from an EcoPlanet vermiculture system

Worm tea

Transforming organic waste into a natural soil input that supports healthier plants and more productive soils.

All projectsRead more

Through vermiculture, worms break down vegetable waste into valuable organic soil inputs. The nutrient-containing liquid collected from these systems is applied in nurseries and farms to support plant growth and soil health, returning resources to the land while reducing organic waste.

Composting at an EcoPlanet site in South Africa

Composting

Turning everyday organic waste into healthier soils, stronger harvests and greater food security.

All projectsRead more

Organic waste collected from soup kitchens, households, offices and worker camps is transformed into nutrient-rich compost. Applied to degraded soils and vegetable gardens, the compost gradually restores soil health, improves water retention and supports stronger crop growth, all while reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill.

Restoration you can feel.

Every carbon project is registered, monitored and open to inspection.
