The California Soil Restoration Project
The California Soil Restoration Project (CSRP) produces the highest quality soil carbon removal credits for companies working to meet their Net Zero commitments. The CSRP enables vineyard and orchard operators to earn income for practices that store carbon in the soil, such as keeping the soil covered with living roots year-round, and minimizing soil disturbance.

Roots in the ground create pathways for water storage and create an additional tool for drought resilience.
-
The roots improve soil structure and reduce runoff and erosion keeping soil healthy and fertile.
Living roots also promote biodiversity and overall ecosystem health.
