"The Huerta recuero farm is a 1.6-hectare former kitchen garden, 800 m² of which is dedicated to seed reproduction and 6,500 m² to market garden production for the time being. I work the land organically and try to grow crops with as much biodiversity as possible. In addition to market gardening, I sell locally to 23 families and am also trying to develop a bit of beekeeping on the side.

I've always been interested in seeds, and for several years now I've been trying to recover my region's seed heritage. What I love most about this job is the daily contact with so many different plants.

My favorite variety for 2022 is the "Kanner Hoell" tomato: its flavor, color and flesh are simply unbeatable.

A final word: "Our seeds are a fabulous heritage, let's not lose them!"
