Grounded Earth operates entirely on electric vehicles and equipment, creating a zero-emissions field operation. The company has developed expertise in invasive plant management, an emerging service category with increasing demand across urban landscapes.

The funds raised will support Grounded Earth through the late winter period and into the April 2026 operating season. Approximately 40% of the funds will be used to optimize the company’s balance sheet by reducing higher-interest short-term debt, while the remaining 60% will be preserved as seasonal working capital. This capital will support early-season operations, including team onboarding and training, equipment readiness, and operational ramp-up.
