Founded by John Kempf in an Amish barn in 2006, AEA was the first company to:
- Provide regenerative agriculture consulting
- Manufacture nutritional inputs specifically designed for regenerative agriculture
- Succeed at scale in fruit and vegetable crops
- Reduce pesticides significantly in fruit and vegetable crops
- Share agronomic knowledge freely
- Collect extensive agronomic data to guide decision making
- Drive farmer profitability and eliminate yield drag during a regenerative transition
Now we’re driving that legacy forward.

Pursuing the impossible in agriculture propels us.
We are driven to make regenerative agriculture so successful that it becomes the global norm.
To achieve our mission, we’ve built a robust research and development program that now includes a laboratory in Willoughby, Ohio and a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Aurora, Colorado.
