Regenerate Nature

Here at Alexpant we are committed to organic agriculture, biodiversity and sustainability.

According to FiBL (Forschungsinstitut für biologischen Landbau) organic farming produces clear benefits for biodiversity in comparison to conventional farming. Depending on altitude, organic farms have between 46 and 72 percent more semi-natural habitats and host 30 percent more species and 50 percent more individuals than non-organic farms. The lower farming intensities and higher proportion of semi-natural areas enable site-typical plant and animal species to survive on organic farms and allow farmers to benefit from an intact and therefore sustainably functioning ecosystem.

This is a statement that we experience in our organic farms on daily basis. Our herbs are growing in harmony with nature, and we feel we are custodians of biodiversity at all levels – from seeds and worms to birds, bees, butterflies, and a variety of animals. In 2021 we planted a selection of over 150 trees that will enhance the biodiversity of our farms.

In 2022 we added another 5 hectares of land to our plantations. Within this addition we also inherited a small cottage which is over 250 years old! We call it the “house of Aga”. We plan to renovate it to its past glory and use it as a hosting spot for our visitors, and a shelter for our Alexpant farm team
