The Team

Dan Kittredge — Founder

Dan Kittredge is the founder of Bionutrient Supply Company. A regenerative farmer for more than 30 years and widely recognized as a leading proponent of nutrient density, he works with commercial partners on the soil, crop and management decisions that move nutrient density from concept to verifiable outcome in the field. A sought-after international advisor, Dan's work traces the direct line from soil health to plant health to human health, and increasingly to the unit economics of premium food. He is the Founder and Executive Director of the Bionutrient Food Association (BFA) and the Bionutrient Institute (BI), the movement and research bodies that supply BSC's commercial work with its evidence base. In 2016 he developed the Bionutrient Meter prototype, the first proof that nutrient density could be measured in real time.

Sarah Seng - Board Treasurer & Advisor of Business Strategy & Governance

Sarah brings a systems-thinking, governance, and commercial lens to BSC's work - helping translate nutrient density into the language of corporate supply chains, market claims, and the sustainability disclosure frameworks BSC's customers and partners increasingly operate within. She advises BSC on the business strategy required to make nutrient density a category-defining commercial standard, and contributes a board-level and systems perspective to how that standard should be structured to meet the disclosure expectations BSC's market is moving toward. Her parallel role as Development Director for the BFA and the BI keeps her grounded in the science and field practice that BSC's commercial work rests on. She brings passion and experience investigating how value is defined and measured in food systems.

Melissa Larsen — Business Development & Project Strategy 

Melissa brings the systems, implementation, and value-chain activation lens to BSC’s work—translating nutrient density into practical pathways for producers, suppliers, institutional buyers, and brands. Over the past two decades, she has led initiatives across regenerative agriculture, K‑12 nutrition, foodservice innovation, and honeybee stewardship, always focused on reconnecting ecological health with human nutrition. At BSC, she advises on supply‑chain design, stakeholder alignment, and the regenerative market architecture required to operationalize nutrient density at scale. Her work ensures that BSC’s standards and strategies are grounded in the realities of stakeholders within the broader food ecosystem. 

Shawna Lyons — Project Manager of Nutrient Density & Regenerative Systems 

Shawna brings the scientific, operational, and field‑level rigor that anchors BSC’s nutrient‑density pilots in real‑world agronomy and measurable outcomes. With nearly two decades within the Bionutrient movement, she has helped build the scientific and operational backbone of nutrient‑density research through her parallel role as Operations Director for the Bionutrient Food Association and the Bionutrient Institute. A soil scientist and former farm manager, Shawna ensures that every BSC project is grounded in practical field experience, robust data collection, and a deep understanding of how soil health translates into nutrient‑dense crops. At BSC, she leads the design and execution of pilot programs, bringing her unique ability to build projects from the ground up and translate complex biological systems into actionable value ‑chain insights.
