Nature strategy that survives scrutiny.

Four capabilities that run in sequence on a project, and stand alone when that is what you need. Most engagements start with the smallest piece of work that could change your mind about the project.

Start where you are

You probably don't need all of it.

Find the sentence closest to your situation. Each points at the first piece of work we would actually do — not a package.

“We have land, and we don't know if a project is viable.”
Start with feasibility. Hydrology, species and habitat matching, soil and salinity, historical land-cover change — enough to know what is restorable before anything is designed around it.
Feasibility →
“We have a target — SBTi, TNFD — and need a defensible nature position.”
Start with strategy. Where insetting genuinely applies, what your disclosure actually has to support, and which claims will survive an auditor.
Strategy →
“We have a project and need the monitoring to hold up.”
Start with baselines and MRV. Drone survey, land-cover classification, biodiversity baselining, and a monitoring design that is still answerable in year seven.
Nature tech & GIS →
“We have a crop or a landscape, and no route to market.”
Restoration that pays for itself needs a buyer. We have built an agroforestry product from a restoration landscape and sold it — so we can test demand cheaply before anyone commits to scale.
Product & market →
“Our supply chain depends on a crop that is getting harder to grow.”
Sustainability that starts at procurement starts too late. We work upstream — feasibility, restoration and community engagement in the landscapes you actually source from.
Read the argument →
“We've been offered a project and want a second opinion.”
A short, independent read on the site and the claims attached to it. Often the cheapest work we do, and occasionally the most valuable.
Get in touch →
“We're not sure yet.”
That is a normal place to start. A conversation before a scope is usually more useful than a proposal, and costs nothing.

01

Nature tech, GIS & MRV

We fly our own surveys and build our own layers. That matters because the spatial dataset is not a deliverable that sits in a report — it becomes the evidence base a project is designed on and audited against years later.

Typically includes

Multispectral and LiDAR drone survey across upland and coastal sites
Vegetation health indices and land-cover / land-use classification
Hydrological and topographic overlays; coastal-to-upland zone delineation
Biodiversity baselining — field survey, camera traps, acoustic loggers
Monitoring design that anticipates the methodology's reporting requirements

02

Carbon development & impact

Feasibility and project design for carbon and biodiversity projects, developed with the communities who hold the land. The consent and tenure groundwork is part of the work, not a box ticked after the fact — it is usually where projects actually fail.

Typically includes

Ecological feasibility and restorable-versus-non-restorable delineation
Land status and tenure assessment; consent processes with rights holders
Methodology fit and safeguards review
Project design and the documentation a funder or validator will ask for
Co-benefit and livelihood design alongside the carbon case

03

Strategy & nature advisory

For sustainability teams who need a position they can defend to a board, an auditor and a journalist — in that order. We are more useful when brought in before the commitment is made than after.

Typically includes

Insetting strategy and where it genuinely applies in your supply chain
Nature-aligned planning and target setting
Disclosure support against TNFD and SBTi, including the Net-Zero Standard V2.0
Portfolio review of existing offset and restoration commitments
Independent second opinions on projects offered to you

04

Product & market development

Carbon is not the only way a restored landscape pays. Agroforestry produces things people buy — and the hard part is rarely growing them, it is reaching a buyer who will pay a price that makes restoration worth a farmer's time.

We have done this ourselves rather than advised on it from a distance: sourcing vanilla directly from farmers in a restoration landscape, building it into a finished product, and selling it into a consumer market. That business, Buji Vanilla, still trades.

Typically includes

Market testing before scale — small, cheap pilots that establish real demand
Value-chain design linking growers to buyers who pay for provenance
Product development, positioning and route to market
Traceability from landscape to shelf, and the claims it can support
Livelihood economics — what a farmer actually earns, and whether it holds

Not sure which of these you need?

Say what you are looking at and we will tell you what we would do first — including when the answer is nothing yet.
