CONSERVATION

THE CONSERVATION AND REPRODUCTION OF NATIVE AND GLOBALLY ENDANGERED CROPS AND USEFUL PLANTS IS ONE OF OUR CORE CONCERNS.

Uncultivated seeds sooner or later lose their germination capacity and can no longer be reproduced. This means that an immense treasure of our ecosystem is irrevocably lost. Due to intensive, mechanized agriculture, already more than three quarters of crop varieties (including vegetables and cereals) have disappeared in less than 100 years.

The cultivation and production of seeds at Finca Alexandria is carried out according to strictly organic principles. Currently, we only make our seeds available for private use for trial cultivation. For this, we charge a small fee to cover expenses.

By purchasing and cultivating our seeds, you are directly contributing to the preservation of old and endangered varieties.
