At Torsåker Farm, Axfoundation has test-grown hemp over several years and evaluated hemp seed in test kitchens to develop food products where the raw material works in practice. Industrial hemp is a crop that sequesters large amounts of carbon dioxide, fits well into crop rotation, and reduces the need for pesticides.Axfoundation is an independent, non-profit organization developing practical solutions to complex sustainability challenges within future food and materials. Believing strongly in business as a driving force for change and working in broad collaboration with more than 300 partners, Axfoundation tackles the systems connected to the things we buy, the food we eat, and the resources we use. Torsåker Farm is Axfoundation’s development center, where researchers and practitioners test, refine, and scale solutions to accelerate the transition to sustainable food and material systems. Founded in 1993 by Antonia Ax:son Johnson, Axfoundation is driven by the motto Act to inspire & Inspire to act. www.axfoundation.se/en
