Store Carbon in Soil

Mission

We do right by humans
and the planet.

We design, execute and scale multiple organizations around scalable regenerative agroforestry in a profitable way to fix carbon in the soil, produce nutritious food, heal the land and make saving the world feel obtainable.

What We Provide 

01

Carbon Removal Credits

At Scave, we believe in taking action to reverse the effects of climate change. We convert agricultural land into food producing carbon sinks through regenerative agroforestry practices. Regardless of whether you are a partner or customer, you can join us in the fight against climate change. Our carbon removal credits make it feasible and simple.

02

Personal Footprint Calculations

Our expertise in Quantitative Finance, Greenhouse Gas Calculations and Nature based Carbon Storage allows us to calculate your personal lifetime carbon footprint in a face to face meeting. We offer these services to create awareness of personal and systemic impacts in Carbon Emissions.

03

Farmer Collaborations

Effective carbon removal starts with efficient land management, and that's where our farmer collaborations come in. We work closely with local farmers to ensure each plot of land is managed in the most effective way possible for carbon storage.

04

Cost Modelling

Our expertise in Quantitative Finance, Entrepreneurship, Logistics, and Regenerative Agroforestry allows us to accurately model costs and revenue projections.

We also offer these services to others to support them in their sustainable business development.

Our Model

Create a better world by increasing the quality of life for all creatures.

At the forefront of innovative agroforestry solutions, we leverage the full potential of regenerative methods to address climate change.

Our unique approach blends cutting-edge agricultural techniques with sound economic insight. By strategically incorporating local grains and legumes within our thriving tree strips, particularly nut trees, we prioritise scalable and sustainable solutions for all.

Join us in making a tangible impact on the world through our unwavering commitment to regenerative agroforestry.

In Cidadelhe, Portugal, we’re testing the Scave model on 188 hectares of semi-arid sand. Of an anticipated Land Equivalent Ratio (LER) of 1,67, 32% is large trees, 25% is small trees, 60% is rye and 30% is fava beans.

Our Focus Areas

At Scave, we believe that taking a hands-on approach to creating a more sustainable future is the way to go. We bring our expertise in designing, and operating scalable regenerative agro-forests in Europe & Americas. 

These agro-forests are not just about technology, they are about creating more life and bringing people together. We empower individuals and companies to align their activities with natural carbon removal, one project at a time.

Together, we can create a better future for generations to come by pushing mental boundaries on what is possible.

01

Regenerative Agro-Forests 

Scave believes that regeneration is the key to bringing more life into our daily activities. We are reversing the cycle and making agriculture a solution to climate change rather than a contributor.

 

Our strategy involves practicing regenerative agriculture by planting trees on agricultural land. Through scalable regenerative agroforestry and afforestation practices, we aim to create a more sustainable future.

Pasta Production

Your personal eating habits are a fact of life on Earth, but at Scave, we believe it is possible to make a positive difference. 

We can effectively clean up the environment by storing large amounts of carbon by collaborating with farmers who use regenerative agroforestry methods.

We give you the tools and resources you need to reduce your carbon footprint and help create a more sustainable future.

Company Footprint

Your carbon footprint is a fact of life for corporations. Scave believes it is possible to actively remove carbon emissions rather than simply offset them. 

By collaborating with farmers who use regenerative agroforestry methods you create value for yourself by ensuring a sustainable future. Carbon removal is a means to more than just carbon footprint reduction.

We give you the tools and resources you need to align your business operations with natural carbon removal and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Boer-in-Natuur

Boer in Natuur is a high-biodiversity regenerative agro-forest. Wilco and his 24 hectares of land highlight the importance of local,  circular,  regenerative agriculture.

Translating to Farmers in Nature, their mission is to work in harmony with nature by using sustainable farming methods that benefit both people and animals, based on the principle of minimal intervention.

ONCRA

ONCRA is an Open Natural Carbon Removal Accounting framework, a part of The Climate Cleanup, enabling removal and storage of carbon-dioxide with nature-based solutions.

 

This framework allows us to best implement sustainable practices and technologies for a regenerative economy. 

Groothuis Bouwgroep

Groothuis Bouwgroep is a construction firm that realizes real estate solutions for the present and the future, contributing to a sustainable living environment.

They have been actively working to reduce CO₂ emissions for years. However, the reality is that achieving complete CO₂ neutrality is not yet possible. At SCAVE, we are assisting them in taking the next steps through regenerative agroforestry and carbon credits.
