Most of the fruits and vegetables are Bioland certified, and most of them are from a local farm near Heidelberg. The melon and obviously the bananas are not from Germany.

The Bread is organic whole-grain spelt bread from a local bakery. The grains are probably also local.

The oat milk is from organic locally (Baden-Württemberg) sourced and produced oats.

Nope, no brand advertising, which brand do you think am I advertising?

There are some brands visible on the picture, and I added information in the description about the value (local [climate impact] and organic [environmental impact]) of some products to justify the high price.

Bioland is a certification, much like EU Organic Certification, but with much higher standards (and no bullshit like burying cow horns filled with poop because some dude 100 years ago said so, like the other popular German higher standard organic certification Demeter does).

But to be fair, in terms of animal wellbeing Demeter is absolutely fucking great. If there wouldn't be the thing with weird ideology.

I don't eat animal products so IDK, but Bioland has stricter animal wellbeing guidelines too. According to this website (de), they seem to be not as far as Demeter in some aspects, tho. E.g. 6000 vs 3000 Hens per building.
