Exciting facts from the world of the Holderhof
Holderhof relies entirely on its own organic herbs
Most of the iced tea drinks from Holderhof contain organic herbs from the farm’s own cultivation. This has developed well in recent years and is now to be expanded to include other varieties such as yarrow, camomile and marigold.
Smoothie as a natural pick-me-up
Smoothies mixed together from different fruits are delicious and also healthy. The Holderhof company produces them in different variations. Although a certain exoticism is part of it, puree made from local apples is playing an increasingly important role.
Apple, the jack-of-all-trades: a stroke of luck for Holderhof
The apple is part of Switzerland’s culinary tradition. The Holderhof company, which processes regional apples into exciting products, is inspired by this tradition. And there is much more to it than just apple juice!
Syrup provides the natural flavour
Holderhof is the most important syrup producer in Switzerland. The main flavours are raspberries and elderflower. The sugar makes the syrup durable. With the chosen dilution factor, you choose the degree of sweetness in the beverage yourself.
Holderhof beverages bring diversity to farm shops
At the Hof-Märcht in Baar, Holderhof beverages provide a credible broadening of the assortment geared to regional focus. Farm shops can spice up their range with the natural iced teas, lemonades or spritzers from Holderhof.
From milk to elderberry
At the Holderhof in Ufhofen, senior boss Bruno Schenk looks after the 1600 or so elderberry trees. The blossoms from this year’s campaign have been harvested and processed into extract. Now he hopes that the cherry vinegar flies will not attack the berries and that he will be able to harvest them in late summer.
Applesauce made in and for Switzerland
Since this spring, Holderhof Produkte AG has also been producing applesauce at its fruit processing centre in Sulgen. This is intended to further strengthen the Swiss location for the production and processing of apples.
Launch of new Holderhof apple juice line
Holderhof Produkte AG is launching its own apple juice and spritzer lines, made from pure juice from Swiss apples at the fruit processing centre in Sulgen. This is an interesting opportunity for retailers or companies to also offer the trendy natural products under their own brand.
Growing organic herb seedlings as a discipline in its own right
The visit to the regional organic nursery shows how young herb plants are grown on behalf of Holderhof. From spring onwards, they are then planted outdoors on our herb cultivation areas in Ufhofen.
