Farm Projects

Gmundner Farm

Our farm is the lifeblood of Gmundner Lodge. Here, amongst the rows of leafy green vegetables and fragrant herbs, we practice our back-to-nature philosophy to enhance the wellbeing of our people and care for the land where we exist.

The Gmundner Farm operates on sustainable agricultural principles. Following the “From Producer to Consumer” guideline, the farm harvests seasonal ingredients and sources fresh products on-site, minimising environmental impact and waste. This approach ensures the long-term sustainability of the location’s ecological balance while supporting the lodge’s kitchen and providing for community members.
