It is autumn and we approach the Halloween festivities so therefore we would like to draw your attention to our Natural Branding Halloween pumpkins from our Nature & More grower Krispijn. With our laser technology we have prepared the “cut lines” for your very own jack o lantern. As you may know, the jack-o'-lantern pumpkin or turnip lantern is associated with the holiday of Halloween and named after the phenomenon of a strange light flickering over peat bogs.

The world is opening up again. Corona taught us that we can work online much more than we thought, and that’s a good thing for the environment. But sometimes you just have to meet in the reality of farming. Our quality manager Gert-Jan Lieffering and product manager Andrea Dijkhuizen went to South America last month, after a long break.

Living Wage avocados on the store shelf

Hello, my name is Rogelio Moreno Salas.

Therefore to avoid income losses for our growers and food waste, Eosta is paying some extra attention to the smaller organic avo’s. These avo’s have the same quality, taste and nutritional benefits as their full-sized counterparts.
