Almenland Hochegger Organic Farm / Naturpark Styria

Pöllabauer Herb Garden, high above Gasen

The Scheutz and Pöllabauer families have always strived to work with and in nature, producing healthy, energy-rich foods. The high-quality active ingredients and abundant light energy in the tea, spice, and medicinal herbs are achieved through slow growth at an elevation of 1,100 meters above sea level. The beds and herbs are lovingly tended by hand, harvested, dried, and processed into teas, spice blends, herbal salts, herbal pillows, and herbal beverages (Almenlandfee).

Alpine Herbology

There's a herb for almost everything—and that's especially true in Naturpark Almenland Naturpark .

Very few people know that ground elder is considered an ancient remedy for rheumatism, but it also tastes wonderful in soups or as pesto. Wild thyme is said to have antibacterial and digestive properties. The list of herbs thatAlmenland in Naturpark Almenland Naturpark is long. They’re packed with active ingredients and are a boon for both people and animals. Nestled among lush grasses, these plants form the basis for the high-quality foods produced in the Naturpark.

Almenland : Handcrafted with Passion

Fifteen herb farmers from the Naturpark joined forces in the Almenland
association and carefully hand-process their organic herbs—from cultivation and drying to packaging and regional sales.
