Snails are one of Earth’s oldest ecological collaborators—over 500 million years old and among the first animals ever farmed by humans. Across cultures, they’ve long been valued as a nutrient-dense, low-impact protein. Today, their overlooked potential holds relevance for the climate era.

In Texas Hill Country, our calcium-rich limestone soil provides an ideal setting for escargot farming, especially when paired with regenerative practices. At HHH, we integrate heliciculture into the BioCycle: a closed-loop system where snails transform food waste into nutrient-rich compost, restore degraded soils, and create pathways for climate and economic resilience.

By reintroducing this ancient food source, we’re not just farming snails—we’re restoring ecosystems, honoring heritage, and designing infrastructure for a more just and sustainable future. 🐌🌿

It is our strategy for restoring depleted soil, increasing food security, and co-creating sustainable livelihoods—integrating public health, environmental stewardship, and dignified local economies.

We help rural and underserved communities build ecological and economic resilience by transforming food systems through heliciculture and regenerative agriculture.

Yes! ♻️🐌 The BioCycle was designed with ranchers in mind—especially those managing overgrazed or underperforming land. Our modular systems convert manure and pasture waste into high-value compost and escargot protein, restoring your soil while diversifying your income.

Start Your Soil Recovery Plan! 🇺🇸

Yes! 🐌🌿 We host hands-on heliciculture workshops for schools, colleges, and community organizations. These programs teach regenerative agriculture, culinary heritage, and green career pathways—planting seeds for the next generation of changemakers.

Sign Up Your School! 🇨🇱

Absolutely! We’re always looking to collaborate with retailers, food innovators, and values-aligned distributors. If you're ready to bring climate-resilient products to your shelves, let’s grow together.

Join Our Network! 🇨🇱

Absolutely. 🌿🚛 We help restaurants turn food waste into regenerative power. By feeding your kitchen scraps to snails and compost modules, your leftovers become soil, clean protein, and local impact. Plus, we’ll track your carbon savings and community contribution.

🐌📦 Join the Loop

Mama Kuku’s Homestead (MKH)—is our pilot site. While HHH is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on systems alignment, health equity, and regenerative agriculture, MKH serves as our storytelling vessel, centering rural resilience and land stewardship.

This partnership allows us to braid together grassroots education with systems-level change. MKH brings heart, heritage, and healing, while HHH builds structure, research, and scalable impact. Together, we advance the BioCycle: a holistic strategy for ecological and social regeneration.

Heliciculture is the science and art of raising snails for food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and soil regeneration.

With the BioCycle strategy, we use it as an engine for equity: combining sustainable farming, biodiversity conservation, and workforce development to nourish people and planet alike.

Yes! Snails have one of the lowest ecological footprints of any animal protein. They require minimal water, space, and feed—and produce almost no methane.

Our methods take it even further: we use food waste as feed inputs, compost snail byproducts, and integrate native plants into farming systems. This supports healthy soil, pollinators, and long-term ecological balance.
