To rear: a profession in its own right

Timing is essential. During the whole process from sowing to harvesting, you have to do the right thing at the right time. You have to feel exactly what is needed. Rearing organic leek plants is a profession in itself. Despite the annual cultivation of millions of leek plants, we still improve our cultivation plans and processes every year. We therefore advise you to always buy plant material from a rearing expert who specializes in organic leek plants.

Make sure that your supplier is allowed to carry the EKO quality mark Only then you can assume that your plant material really is 100% sustainable organic.

Because we grow in greenhouses, in tunnels and on land, we have a long delivery period from week 9 to 33. Read more about our plants take a look at the cultivation calendar per variety.

The right timing is crucial in organic growing, everything depends on extremely precise planning.
