Grower in the spotlights at OZ Export: Paeon

Peony nursery Paeon truly is a family business, with knowledge being passed on from one generation to the next. At this moment three generations, grandfather, father and son work together in the nursery.

Sustainable
Sustainability is important to Paeon, especially in relation to their staff. Every year the same people come back to work again at the Paeon nursery. The nursery prides itself with providing good working conditions and fair payment. For example, they help with housing near the nursery and ensure that staff can carry out their work in a healthy and safe environment.

In addition to good human resources, they think about the environmental issues. They separate trash, and where they can, they use natural and organic ways to fight pests and diseases. A healthy and sustainable way of growing Peonies is confirmed by their MPS certification. Paeon is still trying to implement sustainable improvements to the nursery.
