Enjoyment on the farm

Another plus of organic foods is that they have been shown to be healthier than conventionally produced ones. Numerous studies, including those commissioned by Greenpeace, show that the milk from grazing cows contains twice as much omega-3 fatty acids as that from stable cows that are fed maize and concentrated feed. These healthy fatty acids are believed to reduce the risk of heart attacks, which are one of the most common causes of death in industrialized nations.

Also important nutrients are found in lamb and sheep, which are among the healthiest types of meat on the market. It not only contains essential fatty acids, minerals and vitamins, it is also extremely low in fat. The liver, spleen and heart of sheep are concentrated in orotic acid, which is known to prevent various diseases in humans such as the liver. By the way, it is interesting to know that lamb or sheep have never been diagnosed with cancer.

The FISCHERGUT in St. Wolfgang specializes in the gentle processing of this healthy meat into a top product, namely the piquant and delicate SHEEP SALAMi, which only contains the best regional ingredients and is one hundred percent organic. The addition of roughly chopped meat and fat as well as fresh, untreated herbs and spices ensure the firm bite and unmistakable taste of this air-dried or smoked sausage.

More and more consumers want healthy food and want to know exactly what ingredients they contain. For this reason, the majority in many European countries - 60 percent in Austria - are also willing to spend more money on organic products, which are more costly to manufacture than conventional mass-produced goods

So if you want to be sure that there is no horse meat in your shopping basket that is not labeled as beef, you should buy your food directly on the farm, not only to support organic farmers, but also for your own good and that of the environment.
