Within the framework of the Hessian BioDays from 10 - 19 September 2021, various activities will also be carried out in the district of Waldeck- Frankenberg. The events were planned and organised by the district administration's agriculture department, direct marketing/producer-consumer dialogue division and the eco-model region in cooperation with farms, associations and clubs.

The Hessian eco-model regions are looking for ways to meet the increasing demand for organically produced food from local agriculture and to raise consumer awareness of regional cycles and organically produced food. They are part of the Hessian action plan as contact persons for farmers, regional producers, processors and trade. In this context, they are involved in the actions.

"Ecological-Regional-Sustainable - Join in and discover the region" is the motto of the Hessian BioDays, which are being held throughout Hessen under this name for the first time. They invite visitors to experience the diverse range of organic and regional products with all their senses. Producers and processors open the doors of their farms to the public and show what organic farming means in practice and how regional food is produced.
