Marianne Endfellner

Salzburg

Marianne Endfellner runs an organic hay milk farm. The almost 30-hectare farm comprises mainly grassland and 3.5 hectares of forest. A 1 ha field is used purely for self-sufficiency and provides feed for pigs and chickens.


Commitment to biodiversity:

On her farm, Marianne Endfellner pays particular attention to the circular economy, characterised by constant observation of nature, learning and adapting. Through her training as a soil practitioner, she has learnt to take a closer look and understands the soil based on the indicator plants. She is also a trained field and horticultural practitioner and is happy to share her extensive knowledge with other interested parties, including the Seekirchen Fruit and Horticultural Association. Around the farm, a cottage garden, a natural pond surrounded by a hedge and old fruit trees reveal at first glance that the pasture farm is home to a great deal of biodiversity.
