Our Story
Biochar, the new oldest thing around…..
Carbon Gold was founded in 2007 by Craig Sams, founder of Green & Blacks Chocolate, and Dan Morrell, founder of the Carbon Neutral Company. From the outset the company set out to improve plant and soil health using biochar, a stable, charcoal-like material made from sustainably sourced wood.
Our mission is to improve soil health and plant health through high-quality, biochar-based products for professional growers, landscapers and arborists. We make products that are good for the soil and good for the businesses that depend on it.
