PRECIOUS HERBAL OILS FROM PIEMONT

Created to offer new generations a chance to stay on their family farms producing premium, organic products, the cooperative AGRONATURA relies on the principles of respect for mankind, animals and the environment.

In the beginning, only thirteen members worked seven hectares of farmland. Over thirty years later, thanks to long-standing contracts with PRIMAVERA, more than twenty agricultural operations are organized in this cooperative. They operate roughly 310 hectares of cropland and cultivate organic medicinal plants for essential oils in Demeter quality, including aniseed, fennel, chamomile roman, sage, lavender, lavandin, rosemary and many others.

EXPERT KNOWLEDGE FROM OUR FARM PARTNERS

“Biodynamic cultivation creates a harmonious relationship with the earth and its components, nourishing the land through compost and fertilizer to vitalise and restore. In addition, cosmic rhythms are taken into consideration, with planting and harvesting schedules created to best benefit the plant. Biodynamic cultivation performs constructive environmental effects concerning ground renewal, long-term fertility and the biodiversity of plants and animals.“
