Why Organic?
More plant-based food is one of the answers to reduce CO2 on our planet and to give more space to nature.
When the plant-based food is organic, we also take care of other serious challenges like protecting our drinking water from pesticides and protecting our food from unwanted chemistry. The organic principles also protect life and you will see 30-50% more biodiversity on an organic farm than on a conventional farm.
