Organic Partners

Sementes Vivas' organic Cornflower (Centaurea cyanus) seeds, available at Geocakes, produce intense blue flowers that turn any garden into a small wild refuge. With long flowering, they attract bees and butterflies and bring back a flower that was once common in Portuguese fields.

Cornflower: A Wildflower from Beira Baixa

The Cornflower was once a common presence in Portuguese wheat and barley fields, considered a weed, before becoming increasingly rare with modern farming practices. Growing it in the garden today is also a small way of giving it back some space. These seeds reach you through Sementes Vivas, a Geocakes partner based in Idanha-a-Nova, with organic and Demeter (biodynamic farming) certification, sharing the same values of respect for the land and the Naturtejo Geopark's natural cycles.

How to Grow It in Your Garden

Cornflower adapts easily to different soil types, as long as it gets good sun exposure. It prefers direct sowing in its final spot and needs no complicated care once established, growing to about one metre tall. Each pack contains 10g of seeds, enough for a colourful border or a wild corner of the garden.

From the Land to the Table and to Decoration

The blue petals are edible and can enrich salads, herbal teas and dishes, with a mild, slightly peppery taste. Once dried, they keep their colour well and also become a natural, biodegradable confetti, widely used at weddings and outdoor celebrations, a second life beyond the garden and the kitchen.

Why Choose These Seeds

• Organic and Demeter seeds, no chemical treatments
• Edible flowers, for cooking and herbal teas
• Long flowering, over several months
• Attracts bees and butterflies, an ally for biodiversity
• From Idanha-a-Nova, at the heart of the Naturtejo Geopark

Sementes Vivas' organic French Marigold (Tagetes patula) seeds, available at Geocakes, produce vibrant orange flowers that are decorative, edible and useful in the vegetable garden all at once. Also known simply as Tagetes, it's one of the most complete plants for anyone who grows both for pleasure and for practical need.

French Marigold: Beauty and Protection in the Garden

Beyond its ornamental value, French Marigold is known among gardeners for helping to reduce nematodes and other soil pests, thanks to substances released by its roots, especially when planted in clusters alongside other crops. These seeds reach you through Sementes Vivas, a Geocakes partner based in Idanha-a-Nova, with organic and Demeter (biodynamic farming) certification, sharing the same values of respect for the land and the Naturtejo Geopark's natural cycles.

How to Grow It in Your Garden or Vegetable Patch

Sow in full sun, once the risk of frost has passed. French Marigold adapts well to different soil types, flowers throughout the warm season and needs no complicated care. Each pack contains 10g of seeds, enough both for ornamental borders and for planting among tomato plants and other vegetable garden crops.

From the Land to the Table

The petals, with a mildly bitter taste, can be used in salads, soups, sauces, cakes and breads, working as a traditional, economical substitute for saffron, both in colour and in the aroma they bring to dishes. A double life few flowers can offer, spanning the garden and the kitchen.

Why Choose These Seeds

• Organic and Demeter seeds, no chemical treatments
• Edible flowers, a saffron substitute in the kitchen
• Helps repel nematodes, useful alongside other crops
• Attracts bees and pollinators, an ally for biodiversity
• From Idanha-a-Nova, at the heart of the Naturtejo Geopark

The Ginger That Warms. The Hibiscus That Balances.

Fresh ginger. Raw hibiscus flower. Organic Sencha green tea fermented for as long as nature needs. MAI Ginger & Hibiscus Flower Kombucha is a feel-good drink with character: it warms, surprises and cares for you - all at once. Unpasteurised, unfiltered, with natural carbonation produced right inside the bottle.

The combination of ginger and hibiscus flower isn't arbitrary. Fresh, raw ginger brings warmth and intensity - a gentle heat you recognise and remember. Hibiscus flower adds colour, floral acidity and a lightness that balances the ginger's strength. Together, over a base of organic Sencha green tea fermented slowly and naturally, they create a kombucha with its own personality: a feel-good drink that doesn't go unnoticed.

Flavouring is done exclusively with fresh, raw ingredients, with no processing whatsoever, so the aromas and natural compounds reach your table intact. The result is a kombucha that smells like what it is - and tastes like what it promises.

Slow Fermentation, Natural Carbonation

MAI Kombucha ferments the traditional way, respecting each phase's own timing - because it's that time that allows the beneficial properties that set this drink apart from any processed alternative to develop. No rush, no shortcuts.

The gas isn't injected. It's born inside the bottle itself, in a natural second fermentation that happens after bottling. Every bottle is, therefore, alive - with the effervescence that only a genuinely handcrafted process can create.

What You'll Find in Every 25cl Bottle

• Base: Certified organically farmed Sencha green tea
• Flavouring: Fresh, raw ginger and hibiscus flower, no processing

No Pasteurising. No Filtering. Everything Intact.

MAI Kombucha isn't heated, filtered or pasteurised. Production has grown in a handcrafted way, with the awareness that growing can never mean giving up what makes this drink different. Live microorganisms reach your table intact - because no thermal process eliminated them along the way.

A feel-good drink that respects the green tea, respects the ginger, respects the hibiscus. And respects whoever drinks it.

When and How to Drink It

Serve well chilled. MAI Ginger & Hibiscus Flower Kombucha is a natural choice for anyone who values wellbeing without giving up pleasure. Ideal first thing in the morning as a kickstart ritual, at lunch as a characterful alternative, or as company for an afternoon that deserves more than water.
