The FÖL -
The Fördergemeinschaft Ökologischer Landbau Berlin-Brandenburg e.V. (FÖL) is a central umbrella organization and value creation network of the organic food industry in the Berlin-Brandenburg region. Founded by Michael Wimmer as a one-man project about 20 years ago, the FÖL has developed into an association and company-wide platform that advocates for a sustainable agricultural and nutritional transition.
The main mission of the FÖL is to promote more organic farming in urban and rural areas and to improve the framework conditions for a comprehensive and sustainable agricultural and nutritional transition. The values of the FÖL include environmental protection, the preservation of nature, climate protection, and the welfare of farm animals. It also advocates for healthy food and short transport routes.
Thus, the FÖL is a central actor in promoting a sustainable and regional organic movement in Berlin and Brandenburg, characterized by comprehensive educational, networking, and marketing activities.
