Seeds and propagating material

Healthy seeds and propagating material are of great importance for organic agriculture. They must be true, they must not be contaminated with GMO, must have a high germination capacity and vigour, and they must be free of diseases.

Since a few years, only organically produced seeds and propagating material may be used.
