What we do

Biomass to Biochar

We offer placed based solutions to biomass reduction. Our method involves converting unmarketable woody slash and debris into biochar. The technology we use is portable and affordable, and we tour to expand awareness on how to retrofit existing practices to incorporate biochar making into our daily lives.

Education Services

We have discovered that not many people are aware of biochar's ability to enhance climate resilience. Its our goal to awaken the masses. This simplistic effort of reducing spent woody residues to a valuable treasure, benefits communities, the environment and our watersheds!


Join Us in Safeguarding Our Ecosystems

Our mission is to build a skilled workforce dedicated to reducing hard-to-access slash efficiently and safely. By doing so, we protect our ecosystems from both human-made and natural threats.

Our partners and collaborators

KOrganics LLC
Delivering high quality enhanced efficiency fertilizers with superior vegetative growth. Building living soil and healthy livestock. KO packs a potent punch. KOrganics utilized a simple fermentation process to quickly enrich carbon for stable nitrates with a slow release mechanism loaded with plant promoting biology. 

BIOCHARMA
Our mission is to educate people and farmers about how to make biochar. Understanding the benefits of how it increases the soils ability to retain water, allowing forests to increase growth while reducing fire hazards.

Camp Fire Restoration Project
Beginning with the Camp Fire in 2018 and with the additional devastation of 2020’s North Complex/ Bear Fire and 2021’s massive Dixie Fire, our area continues to be at the forefront of climate change, and in dire need of ecosystem healing.  Most of us agree that all these dots connect.  All the components of life on Earth are interwoven, and so too are the reasons we find ourselves in this unprecedented ecological era.  We are devoted to learning more about what is possible as humans interacting with this beautiful planet, and understanding as best we can how to live in cooperation with natural systems.  We hope to serve as a conduit for knowledge and healing, and an avenue for active community resilience.

Butte County Fire Safe Council 
Our mission is to provide safety in Butte County through wildfire hazard education, mitigation, and wildfire recovery.

Tree Of life BioTechnology
After months of research and due diligence as to the best company overall in the large scale production and industrial ready scalability of both high quality BioChar as well as the manufacturing of the hardware and software to do so, and immense practical “know how”, Tree of Life Biotech took a strategic decision to partner with BioChar Now, LLC. and leverage the many achievements and milestones which it has reached over the past 12 years. These achievements include 16 issued patents, and certifications including ISO, US-EPA, USDA Bio-preferred, CEPA (Canada), OMRI (Organic Certification), and Israeli Ministry of Agriculture. We also have the ability to offer and sell Carbon Credits.
