Organic carrots and stored vegetables.

Rathgeb Bio grows stored vegetables such as carrots, onions, beetroot, celeriac and sweet potatoes in the Stammertal and stores them in its own halls in Unterstammheim. That way there are Swiss organic vegetables even when nothing is growing outside.

Our most important vegetable is and remains the carrot.

Around 30 million organic carrots leave our farm every year – laid end to end, more than three times around the Swiss border. We treat the water from washing them in our own biological wastewater treatment plant.

Stored vegetables are just as crisp and fresh; the difference lies in how long they keep. Only what is flawless and undamaged can be stored. Incidentally, storing is not compulsory. After all, we are organic growers, not winemakers.
