We are faced with a long expanse of green.
The apple trees start further back, with sufficient distance from their neighbouring plants. A row of shrubs and trees fences them in, providing additional protection. Various native shrubs and trees grow at the end of the orchard, carefully assorted so that there is always something in bloom. There is no need to cut them, you just have to wait. As a result, insects have a nice home, birds happily live in their nests and bees also have plenty to do. Here we find elder and cherry trees, as well as various types of fruit, and there are also some taller trees around the house, which are particularly popular with bird species that are otherwise rarely seen. Woodpeckers, for example, or hoopoes with their beautiful crest. Stopping or strolling quietly among the trees, you can hear cheerful singing. Nature, growth, and biodiversity: the perfection of nature.
Here at the Unterwirthof in Lana Melanie lives with her husband and two children on the top floor of the house, while her grandmother and parents live on the lower floors. Four generations under one roof. The grandfather received the farm from his parents, and then moved it away from the village centre in the 1960s, here in the countryside. Melanie’s father then took it over and converted it to organic farming in 2001.
He was always fascinated by organic farming methods and was convinced that he would be able to provide the whole family with a good life. It took some time to implement so that everything was perfect.
Today they have gone a step further and are dedicated to biodynamic cultivation. This is because they are gradually learning to recognise good things. And the more you immerse yourself in it, the more you understand the organism in a complete, holistic way; the more you can see not only the plant itself, but also what is below and above it. Here again, the perfection of nature must be captured.
