In a few months he will harvest
shiitake mushrooms right here.
Holzer used to being told that
he's attempting the impossible,
but he knows that he can
harvest his own chantrells
in places conventional
farmers wouldn't dream of.
Water gives life and Holzer is well aware
of his importance to a healthy ecosystem.
When he took over the
Krameterhof he decided
to buy all the wells on the nearby land.
Over the thirty years of his custodianship
he has put the water to good use.
He has established more than
seventy ponds and water gardens
with the surface area of
more than three hectares.
Ponds, ditches and pipes.
Holzer uses his extensive
water resources in various ways.
The hydropower feeds
his own power generator
producing enough electricity
for the whole farm.
The ponds and the wetlands
are tingling with life.
A huge number of fish, frogs, water
plants and insects are homed here.
Holzer designs his ponds
like natural habitats,
with tree roots and flat zones.
Here the young fish can find
shelter from their natural predators.
Most predators and prey
are naturally sustained
without Holzer having to feed them.
The fish like to use the
flat zone to spawning grounds.
Even exotic fish such as the Japanese
koi can live in these altitudes.
The water temperature in
Holzer's ponds is unusually warm.
Thanks again to the rocks,
which he places in every pond.
Heated by the sun they slowly
release warmth back into the water.
Running warm water, the
water plants love it.
The climate up here is strongly
influenced by the ponds.
The sun reflects of the water
surface on to the hill side.
A unique microclimate is created.
The heat trap is turned on again.
Just right for the cherries.
The raised beds also have
their own microclimate.
They are designed to keep the
prevailing wind off the crops,
therefore retaining warmth and humidity.
Covered by bug wee blossoms
the raised beds are hardly
recognizable in summer.
Holzer plants old
resilient potato varieties.
The seeds are very hard to find.
He also grows new crops spread
potatoes with exotic colours.
Propagating potatoes from seeds is
virtually unknown on farmers these days.
These are the seeds of potatoes,
they're used for generative propagation.
For creating new varieties,
are pollinated by insects,
and then crossed.
By selecting the varieties to be pollinated
I can create the most exotic colours.
These are truffle potatoes.
I have different ones: completely violet,
dark-blue, black and these have white edges.
vegetables:
courgette and pumpkin.Black maize, an old robust variety,
