Calgary Horticultural Society Garden Show – Spruce Meadows – 2016
This past weekend (April 9-10), AirTerra sold biochar to about 100 avid gardeners who stopped by our booth. Two years ago in the same setting, AirTerra could only describe the benefits of biochar as our registration of the product was still in process with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). All that changed in December 2015 when we received our registration permitting us to sell this lifetime soil amendment product – the first company to do so in Canada.
AirTerra has a booth at the 2016 Garden Show, April 9 and 10. Find us in booth 023. We plan on promoting biochar as a compost additive and soil-enhancing agent for the adventurous and experimental gardener. We have plenty of our initial pure biochar product on hand for purchase. This event is our second of the year. The first was a gardening and sustainable living show in Red Deer — the March, 2016 Rethink Red Deer Eco Living Fair. Karin is pictured here selling our product at this event.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has now approved AirTerra’s Biochar product for use as a soil enhancement agent. This gives AirTerra the ability to sell a biochar product in the Canadian market opening up an entirely new avenue for AirTerra’s growth as a biochar promotion, sales, and distribution company in Canada. AirTerra plans to have product in Canadian garden centres by the spring of 2016. This complements AirTerra’s current work to promote clean efficient cooking stoves that generate biochar as a soil enhancement agent in Kenya and Malawi. See the ABI press release here.
