How SCI Got Started?
Soil Concepts Inc. was built from the ground up—literally.
Founders Calvin and Kayla met while studying Agricultural Business at Iowa State University. With backgrounds in farm management, real estate, cattle nutrition, and sales, they shared a passion for agriculture and land stewardship.
In September of 2018, Calvin wanted to transition into full-time farming but saw an opportunity in erosion control and seeding. With one tractor and one work truck, he and Kayla started working with local civil contractors to provide erosion control solutions.
By 2019, SCI had grown to a five-person team. Today, the company has 28 employees, 9 tractors, and 20 trucks to serve contractors and developers across Iowa.
