festive products from WiesenObst
Jörg Geiger is able to trace his fascination with old Swabian fruit varieties back to his childhood. Looking into the history of the Champagner Bratbirne, a special kind of Swabian perry pear, inspired him to breathe new life into the tradition of sparkling pear cider.
For centuries, it has been the queen of pear cider varieties - changing with the times, rising with the trends. One of ou latest products, a true original and pioneer in non-alcoholic aperitifs and food accompaniments is our alcohol-free Champagner Bratbirne pear cider.
Respecting tradition while protection nature
In order to preserve the unique cultural landscape of orchard meadows in our region and to protect this unique natural monument, we have decided to introduce some of our products to a wider audience. We now offer certain WiesenObst specialities in non-alcoholic versions for our individual product lines. Growing awareness of the Manufaktur Jörg Geiger brand makes a major contribution to our sustainability projects (soil revitalisation, soil diversity, nature conservation and preserving the diversity of varieties).
'If you want to preserve old varieties you need understand, why they were originally planted over 150 vears ago', says Jörg Geiger, chairman of the Schwäbische WiesenObst e.V. association.
The WiesenObst ecosystem
The land cultivated by WiesenObst is an ecological system comprised of many different organisms that allow other species to flourish and thrive. Our main goal is to support the coexistence of organisms living above and below the ground and to strengthen the interactions between trees, grass, herbs, birds and insects along with earthworms, tiny soil organisms and fungi (mycorrhizae). Each of these important players give the others what they need to survive.
WiesenObst therefore cultivates permacultures: A community of fruit trees, berry bushes, grass and deep-rooted herbs that permanently co-exist in an area. The resulting permaculture is based as closely as possible on natural ecosystems in a forest landscape. Healthy soils and diverse soil life are the key ingredients. Only with these aspects can we create or delicious WiesenObst fruit.
