The Principle of Ecology
Organic agriculture should be based on living ecological systems and cycles, work with them, emulate them and help sustain them.*
Driven by the understanding that healthy soils and thriving ecosystems are essential for sustainable agriculture, we aim to work in harmony with nature together with organic farmers that produce delicious, nutritious food. By prioritizing biodiversity and ecosystem protection, we ensure food security and strengthen the resilience of food systems while contributing to the well-being of both people and planet.
Noah Timp, Marketing & Communication Specialist and our Ecology Ambassador, shares insights on how the principle of Ecology is embodied in organic farming.
"It becomes increasingly clear that everything is interconnected. Our ecosystems are intricately linked, and organic farming practices help maintain this balance, unlike conventional methods that often exploit these systems.
By respecting nature and avoiding harmful interventions, we can positively influence many aspects of our food chain and support a healthier, more biodiverse planet."
We explored how our organic ingredients grow and the impact of their surrounding ecosystems. In these downloads, we share fascinating stories and facts. Curious about how the agouti and carpenter bee contribute to the growth of brazil nuts?
