Why we built a company.
Five generations on the same hills above Alba taught us something simple: the soil that fed our great-great-grandfather’s vineyards still feeds ours, because we never stopped feeding it. From the very beginning, we farmed organically — the manure of our cows, season after season, into the same earth.
We watched the farms next door take a different road — more chemistry, more chemistry, and more chemistry every year, just to stand still. We were never going to take that road. But we wanted every farmer to have what we had: living soil, fed by living inputs.
When we found a closed-loop containerized aquaculture system that produces fish AND a live-microbial fertilizer with full NPK on the same footprint, we did the math. We then put one on our farm. Then another. Then we built a company — together, as the Rosso and Scanavino family farms — to put one on every farm that wants one.
We don’t sell containers. We share what we’d put on our own family’s land — at a price, on a path, that lets a working farmer own one without having to sell the field to pay for it.
