Perfect basically this is a perfect cooperation between Nature Conservation and farming were farming cattle here on the island but were also conserving nature because the cattle graze on the meadows that allows birds to breed here and provides a comfortable habitat for many species. Thanks to the grazing cattle the island is now a Breeding Ground for 10000 black headed goals and many other bird species also. Our paths are useful because cows only graze around there so the grass grows better so it grows on the former colony and serves as a Breeding Ground for the reds. The cattle belong to a collective of 3 farms in northeastern germany the b. O. Boulden cooperative buys farmland across germany members of the cooperative pay 1000. 00 euros for a share. Theres even by. Members
contributions mean we as the billboard uncooperative can financially secure a farm like this one of each also in other words we can take it off the market and give it to farmers who want to farm it sustainably long
the organic farmers work with local customers the potatoes grown here are sold in the farms own shop and to nearby food startups. they go right into the pot at lunch just down the road it was the 1st startup to move here it prepares vegan meals for kindergarten schools and supermarkets the partnership with the organic farms is a win win situation for both. because if you look at me we can buy a lot of vegetables including potatoes and pumpkins for us business and profit isn t everything figure sustainability is important to us too as are short value chains buying locally sourced produce and building something up in the region here . the startups also give the organic farmers ideas for new crops to grow this is blue corn
