Algeavault — The Seednut Protector That Feeds the Future Tree

Algeavault is a smart little cage built to give your seednuts a fighting chance. Squirrels, raccoons, and other critters are always on the hunt for a free meal, and let's be honest, if they can smell a nut, they'll dig, chew, or claw their way through just about anything to get it. That's why masking the scent is just as important as the cage itself: Algeavault hides the nut's aroma so critters never catch a whiff in the first place, so there's nothing tempting them to tear the cage apart to begin with. The cage is just the backup plan; the real defense is that they don't even know it's there.

Here's the really cool part: Algeavault is made from an algae-infused material, so as it slowly breaks down, it feeds thriving colonies of beneficial microbes right in the soil around your seedling — even in poor, depleted soil. Those microbes feed your tree through those critical early years of growth. The structure is perforated too, so roots can push right through the sides as they develop, no barrier, no transplanting, no disturbing the seedling once it's growing. And since it's 100% biodegradable, there's nothing to dig up or remove later — it just disappears into the ground as the tree takes root, leaving nothing behind but healthier soil.

Plant your seednuts in the fall and let them emerge safely come spring, or use Algeavault just as well for spring planting. Either way, your seed is protected, fed, and free to grow.

Protect the seed, feed the soil, grow the tree. Algeavault does it all in one simple, no-fuss package.
