Blün panicle tomato

The panicle tomato is the entry-level model in the world of tomatoes. Whereas until the 1980s almost exclusively "round" tomatoes - i.e. tomato varieties for individual harvesting - were cultivated, from the end of the 1980s the switch to panicle, bush or even vine tomatoes took place. With great success. It was the crystallisation point of the specialisation of vegetable farmers. In the process, Austria developed a high-quality self-sufficiency in tomatoes (tomato parade). The water bombs that were so heavily criticised in the 1990s, especially in import-oriented Germany, could never gain a foothold in Austria. From the very beginning, the focus was on quality instead of quantity. In keeping with this tradition, we offer a good standard here, the Blün vine tomatoes.

Fresh local vegetables from Vienna's first aquaponics farm

Fresh high-quality vegetables from Vienna's is not a novelty to begin with. Vienna, or rather Austria, is one of the pioneers of local self-sufficiency in Europe. However, vegetables from Austria's first aquaponics plant go several steps further! Closed cycles, resource-saving production, the smallest possible CO2 footprint and few food miles. This really is a holistic package that is only available from BLÜN. In addition to technical innovation, the Blün gardeners only grow specialities and specialities, old varieties in contemporary cultivation. Just try it!

Resource-saving circular economy with full taste

The Viennese start-up BLÜN produces fish and vegetables in a sustainable circular economy, this system is called aquaponics and works like this: The BLÜN fish grow up slowly in Viennese high spring water. A certain amount of the water in the tanks is exchanged every day, but instead of simply draining it away, it is reused as a nutrient supplier for the vegetable plants next door - this is how our juicy tomatoes, crunchy peppers and aromatic melanzani are produced, which taste like being on holiday in the South but actually come from close by.
