Sepp Braun
Regenerative Bioland Farmer
Since a film of the same name, Sepp has been known throughout Germany as "The Farmer with the Earthworms". As early as 1988, he converted his farm - from conventional to organic-biological farming. Since then, his main focus has been on soil building, which he has perfected over the years and expanded to include agroforestry. As part of this project, he has now planted more than 50,000 trees and uses them to manage a wood gas plant for electricity and heat, as well as to use plant charcoal for the farm cycle. He is a co-founder and board member of the Bioland Foundation, and in 2015 he was a German Soil Ambassador at the Expo in Milan.
