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.

The European project SPRINT, funded by the European Commission, is conducting large-scale research into the presence of pesticides in the environment, animals and humans. Interim results show that a mixture of pesticide residues can be found almost everywhere in the environment, as well as in animals and humans. Further research should reveal the effects of these mixtures of substances on health.
