In the traditional chain the producer sees a third of the shelf price. In the WOGI Farm-to-Table programme the farm sells directly — the margin stays with us, and the harvest is on your table within a day.
On the WOGI marketplace producers can showcase their farming methods and certificates. Many farms strive for environmentally friendly growing, prevention and natural solutions.
Local producers know their land, their crops and the rhythm of the seasons. This care and expertise shows up in the quality of the products.
Healthy soil is the foundation of quality food. Compost, cover crops and soil-friendly farming help preserve the natural balance of the farmland.
In a short supply chain the product goes straight from the producer to the buyer. Fewer middlemen, more transparent sales, fairer income for farms and fresher food on families’ tables.
Local products reach the consumer from the producer in less time, so they keep their freshness and quality. You know who you buy from, you can get to know the farm, and choose food whose origin is transparent.
Local products travel a shorter distance, reducing the environmental impact of transport. The short supply chain supports local economies, reduces food surplus and contributes to a more sustainable food system.
Regenerative farming aims to continuously improve the condition of the farmland. Soil-friendly tillage, cover crops, crop rotation and organic matter replenishment help preserve soil fertility, increase biodiversity and support sustainable food production.
Seasonal products are harvested at their natural ripening time, so they are fresher, tastier and often need less transport or storage. Buying seasonally supports local producers and a more sustainable food system.
WOGI recipes show the ingredients and quantities you need. This makes it easier to plan your shopping, avoid buying too much, and less food ends up as waste.
When you buy from a local producer, more of the revenue stays in the region. This contributes to the development of family farms, creates jobs, strengthens rural communities and helps preserve local food traditions.
In a short supply chain food travels less, reaches the buyer faster, and needs less packaging, storage and transport. This benefits the producer, the consumer and the environment alike.
