These Demeter-certified brown lentils are grown according to biodynamic farming principles, an approach that places soil health, biodiversity and the natural fertility of the land at the heart of agriculture.
On biodynamic farms, diverse crop rotations and natural manure from the farm’s own livestock help build rich, living soils. Around the French and Italian fields where these lentils are grown, herb-rich field margins provide habitat for insects and other wildlife, supporting the wider farm ecosystem.
Rather than working against nature, Demeter farmers actively encourage biodiversity, nurturing the land so that it remains healthy and fertile for generations to come.
