New Podcast: Organic frontrunners - the tale of a vision
Indhold fra partner Hvad er dette?
Denmark launched the world’s first organic food label in 1987 and has led the organic movement ever since.
In the new Food Nation live podcast, we talk to Henrik Biilmann from Friland and Bo Sten Hansen from Copenhagen Sparkling Tea about Denmark’s organic drivers – and, in particular, the passion and innovation that have built Europe’s largest organic meat company and a brand new category in organic drinks.
Podcasts are the perfect companion if you are going to the beach, on holiday or lazing in the garden and at the same time want to keep you updated on the latest news from the Danish food cluster.
"Stories by Denmark" is published regularly and can be found on our website or on your favourite podcast app.
