MUTTER NATUR
Pulses from austrian organic agriculture
Grown in Austria and guaranteed to be from controlled organic farming. We are expanding our premium range of the MUTTER NATUR brand.
Respect for nature, responsible action, an uncompromising focus on quality, and experience and tradition are paramount for our organic premium brand MUTTER NATUR. Product safety, reliability and innovative development of the product range form the basis for successful long-term collaboration with our customers in the specialist organic and drugstore trades.
For this reason we constantly strive to offer new products: currently new to our range are organic popcorn maize from our Styrian contract farmers and regionally grown bean varieties including red vario beans and borlotti (cranberry) beans. To complete the MUTTER NATUR range we sell chopped and ground organic pumpkin seeds, which are an ideal nut substitute in both sweet and savoury dishes.
MUTTER NATUR products give our bodies power and evoke the flavour of an entire region. Discover the simple pleasures of life!
