Organic Production at Vitacress

Organic production follows a strict set of rules and processes defined by European regulations, ensuring sustainable practices and respect for ecosystems.

At Vitacress, we ensure compliance with these requirements through the control of production factors and field practices, safeguarding the integrity of production at every stage. We guarantee full traceability and farm management in accordance with the regulations.

We also have a company and areas exclusively dedicated to organic production, Euralface Agricultura Lda, reinforcing our commitment to this production method.
