MyLand celebrates 10 years of innovation in soil health on World Soil Day 

MyLand, a soil health company, is celebrating its 10th anniversary today on World Soil Day. Driven by a passion for soil health and sustainable agriculture, MyLand was founded with a vision to revolutionize how growers manage their soil.  

Over the past decade, MyLand’s innovative Soil as a Service model has tackled critical challenges in food security and climate disruption. The MyLand Service empowers growers to restore soil health while boosting their return on investment. 

“Our 10-year journey reflects our unwavering commitment to soil health, food security and sustainability,” said Dane Hague, co-founder and CEO of MyLand. “World Soil Day is a perfect moment to celebrate the progress we’ve made with growers across the country. Healthy soils are the foundation of life, and we’re honored to play a role in regenerating them for the benefit of people and the planet.” 

MyLand has experienced significant growth. With funding secured—including a $23 million investment in 2023 led by Climate Innovation Capital and The Borden Family, as well as a $20 million Hardware as a Service financing facility—MyLand is well-positioned for continued expansion.  

Soil is the foundation of 95 percent of the world’s food supply, yet its health is rapidly deteriorating. Over the past 10 years, MyLand has partnered with growers to revive soil ecosystems using live, native microalgae. This groundbreaking approach has delivered measurable benefits, including increased water retention, enhanced crop yields and greater carbon sequestration. With growers across six states, MyLand’s service has transformed thousands of acres into productive, resilient land. 

In addition to its impact on agriculture, MyLand is addressing climate disruption. Healthy soils play a critical role in carbon storage, with just a 1 percent increase in soil organics capturing 10 tons of carbon per acre. MyLand’s technology not only aids in carbon capture but also saves significant water resources; 8,685 more gallons of water were stored in the soil per acre foot on serviced lands.
