Our story

When we created AdAstra, we set out to do business differently. No BS — just using what we know to create a more sustainable food system, and having fun while doing it.

Professionally speaking, we've grown up alongside one another. For years prior to AdAstra, we worked side by side on some of the earliest LCA methodologies and land conversion assessment frameworks.

We're living in a climate emergency, and we need to act like it. It's time to shift the paradigm of environmental accounting toward insights that drive action.
