Arcoiris is a seed company which produces exclusively organic seeds.
The seeds are grown by our local producers which we supply with foundation seeds and engage through a multiplication contract.
Arcoiris is dedicated to increase the availability of certified seeds for organic growers in vegetables, cereals and a wide range of organic mixtures designed for green manuring, soil bio-fumigation and for sheltering of bees and wild insects which contribute to keep farm biodiversity.
Seed is undoubtedly one of the most precious resources, as seed is the basis of all the food systems: preserving it is going to be vital if we want to feed ourselves with nourishing healthy food in the future.
Arcoiris is at the forefront of sustainable agriculture: we believe resilience is the key to overcome the climate change, so we invest in preserving the huge biodiversity heritage of our territories and in restoring the ancient Italian varieties which growers have handed down for generations.
We do not just restore heirloom varieties, but we cooperate with public and private breeders for the creation of new varieties and the selection of Organic Heterogeneous Materials tailored for organic growers located in different areas of our Country, which contribution is highly valued in the process of testing and selection.
Moreover, we lead our researches to improve the natural resistance of seeds.
The seeds of our portfolio are by choice all open pollinated and - of course - non-GMO.
Organic seeds production is our priority and we are passionate about supporting the work of our organic growers.
Arcoiris: a passion for organics!
