News & releases

The Netherlands is far behind the European ambitions for organic farming (25% by 2030) and the European obligation for sustainable impact reporting (incrementally from 2025). The government seems paralyzed. That is why sustainable frontrunners like Vivera, Eosta, Hak, Udea, Odin, Tradin and Yumeko, together with interest groups like Urgenda, Bionext and Caring Farmers are now joining forces in the Robin Food Coalition. This coalition of sustainable SMB companies wants to use joint impact reporting and disruptive campaigns to start a breakthrough for healthy, social, nature-inclusive agriculture. Almost all of green food and agriculture was present Tuesday 18th April at the launch at Eosta in Waddinxveen.

Update Organic Citrus Overseas

Hi my name is Lilian from Uganda where we run a large biodynamic, family owned business.  In recent years fresh ginger has become very popular. In China it’s traditionally considered a very healthy spice, increasing the “chi” or life energy. That’s why we call it a Health Wonder.

That we need to get to work on biodiversity comes as no surprise. MVO Nederland has developed 'Aan de slag (get to work)', a practical step-by-step plan to promote biodiversity. The plan helps you identify and reduce your impact on ecosystems and biodiversity. Click here for the step-by-step plan.

For our Kenyan avocado grower Anthony, we developed the attached impact flyer as a summary of the assessment, showing you his positive impact on 5 paddles of the sustainability flower.

Organic Kent Mango from the tropical climate in northern Peru. Given the fragility of the ecosystem and the wealth it offers in terms of biodiversity ... ecological (organic) farming is the only sustainable option. Ecological farming is based on the principles of soil fertility, biodiversity and making use of local resources. This sweet, luscious fruit originated there more than 4000 years ago in India. They are wonderful when eaten fresh, but also great in smoothies, salsa, desserts or African guacamole. Kent, Amelie, Tommy and Keitt are some of the varieties that are grown organically.

Lots of delicious organic products on offer, this week for example:

Easter it up with Natural Branding!

Although Eosta is in a position to use Natural Branding for a wide range of organic products, our personal favorite spring specialties are the Sweet Potatoe and the pear. The mark is extremely clear and truly adds value while at the same time ensuring that these wonderful tasty vitamin bombs do not need to be packed in harmful plastic. Furthermore, all these products are grown in harmony with nature and in that sense can be seen as part of the solution instead of part of the problem. In that regard, we would like to thank our customers for helping to grow the organic segment and contributing to a cleaner, greener planet.
