Family landowners could be a vital piece of the climate solution puzzle, but often face barriers to accessing carbon markets.
We're proud to announce a new collaboration between the American Forest Foundation (AFF) and Funga is closing this gap!
We're empowering families to convert underused agricultural land into high-impact, carbon-storing forests. By leveraging AFF's afforestation expertise and Funga's innovative soil biodiversity restoration, we're not just planting trees—we're maximizing their growth and climate impact from the ground up. A true win for the planet and the people.

We're thrilled to announce our new partnership with Chestnut Carbon to amplify forest restoration and carbon capture!
The soil microbiome is the bedrock of any healthy forest, and is especially vital when planting new ones. That's why our belowground restoration is a powerful ally for Chestnut Carbon's work in large-scale forest restoration. By combining our strengths, we're not only planting trees—we're supercharging their growth and carbon storage. This collaboration demonstrates that climate solutions don't have to compete; they can instead amplify one another to create a bigger positive impact.

We are thrilled to welcome Netflix as the first buyer of our biodiversity-powered carbon removal credits! [Read more in the Forbes article linked in bio]
This long-term commitment is more than a purchase; it’s a powerful vote of confidence in a new class of nature-based climate solutions. It sends a clear signal to the market that projects delivering both carbon removal and critical ecosystem restoration are an investable priority for forward-thinking companies.
With Netflix's catalytic capital, we've now enrolled 28,000 acres into our project, demonstrating the scalability and integrity of our work.
The future is fungi!

New York Climate Week is just around the corner!
Funga's exec team is excited to head to NYC this September 22-25. We're looking forward to connecting with corporate carbon buyers, investors, and fellow nature and climate innovators to discuss how our biodiversity-powered carbon removal solution is delivering real impact on the ground.
If you'll be at Climate Week and want to learn more, send Colin, Erika, or Josh a message on LinkedIn, or come to our happy hour with the Arbor Day on Sept. 24 (register at link in bio). Safe travels to all heading to the city, and see you there!

If you haven't already, check out "Global hotspots of mycorrhizal fungal richness are poorly protected" in Nature! This research brings together soil microbiome research from around the world, and its findings highlight why soil fungi are essential for ecosystem restoration and conservation, and need to be protected.

Ecosystem Engineers at Risk: Underground Maps Reveal 90% of Mycorrhizal Fungal Biodiversity Hotspots Lie Outside Protected Areas
Read at (link also in bio): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-09277-4
Scientists have released the world's first high-resolution, predictive biodiversity map of Earth's underground mycorrhizal fungal communities, revealing that over 90% of Earth’s most diverse underground mycorrhizal fungal ecosystems remain unprotected, threatening carbon drawdown, crop productivity, and ecosystem resilience to climate extremes.
The research, published on July 23, 2025 in the journal Nature, marks the first large-scale scientific application of the global mapping initiative launched by the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks (SPUN) in 2021. This effort brings together SPUN, GlobalFungi, GlobalAMFungi, Fungi Foundation, and the Global Soil Mycobiome consortium and researchers from around the world, Funga's CEO Dr. Colin Averill among them. The research reveals patterns of fungal richness and rarity across biomes—from the Amazon to the Arctic—and marks a major breakthrough in how we understand and visualize life beneath our feet.
"These maps are more than scientific tools—they can help guide the future of conservation," said Dr. Michael Van Nuland, SPUN’s Lead Data Scientist. "Food security, water cycles, and climate resilience all depend on safeguarding these underground ecosystems."
It is exciting to see a growing recognition that fungal communities should be protected and restored along with flora and fauna. The future needs fungi!
