It is important for us to contribute to a more diverse and healthier region, and to strengthen the resilience and biodiversity of our food chains. Thus, we consciously started looking for ancient, seed-resistant varieties. Their yield is often lower and not always flawless, but they are more robust and flavorful. You can taste the difference on the plate and at the same time we can preserve a bit of diversity. The same goes for the animals. We have found farmers who keep and raise animals for us that used to be typical of our region, but are now almost extinct. We make sure that the animals spend the bulk of their time outdoors, and that they are slaughtered humanely - if possible, directly on the farm. At the same time, we support an expanded range of alternative protein sources, such as Swabian lentils.
