100% organic seeds
A world with future-proof agriculture, healthy for the growers, for the consumers, and for the planet. That begins with 100% organic seeds. Increasingly robust, versatile, and with higher yields. We produce seeds from over 330 organic varieties, ranging from vegetables and herbs to flowers and green manures. We do this across various locations worldwide and completely under our own management. This way, we guarantee our customers high-quality seeds, organic-certified and produced in a natural way.

100% GMO-free

No patents
No patents
No person or multinational should be allowed to gain ownership of traits that occur naturally in nature, and we will continue to oppose that. All our varieties are therefore free of patents. Want to know more about our vision?
More than 95% of the world’s crops depend on chemical inputs.
There is a better way. We bolster organic agriculture.

More organic together
What can you do? There is still a world to win. The organic ideal is a strong story that brings healthy agriculture closer. At the same time, it is a matter of supply and demand, both of which must grow step by step.
A transition only succeeds if everyone takes steps together. We need each other. What can you do as a consumer? As a grower or market garden? And as a retailer? And fellow breeders; we also need each other.
