Bio Forschung Austria is a non-university, non-profit research institute supported by the Forestry and Urban Agriculture Office of the City of Vienna (MA 49). The institute has taken an interdisciplinary approach to organic farming since 1979, and one of its basic principles is the use of its research in dialogue with organic farmers.<\/p>\n
Fields of Research and Action:<\/strong><\/p>\n On May 30, 2016, the scope of organic research in Austria was expanded to include the service and information center for \u201cgardening and the provision of local vegetables.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cGarteln in Wien\u201d (Gardening in Vienna) is a coordination and support center set up by the city: city dwellers can learn where to grow their own food in Vienna, and also where they can find fresh, locally-farmed produce for purchase. The center offers guidance in establishing garden initiatives, such as first steps, legal forms, costs, points of contact, land, etc.<\/p>\n Another main focus of Bio Forschung Austria is teaching others how to garden: during the garden season, \u201cDays of the Open Garden Door\u201d are offered, as well as courses for beginners and experts, such as \u201cOrganic Gardening in Community\u201d. There are also educational offers and workshops for children and youth.<\/p>\n\n
