Vert d’Iris: a play on words
It means "The Green of Iris" - Green as in biological and iris as in the symbol of the city of Brussels - A name well chosen, since sustainability is key in everything this fruit and vegetables co-op from Anderlecht does! Vert d’Iris have set an ambitious goal: an ecological transition in food production. That’s why they don’t stop at a-grade crops.

Vert d’ Iris delivers pretty much anything, from cucumber to quinoa and from black cherry tomatoes to edible flowers. But the team also helps people set up their own growing container from recycled plastics and offer internships to share their knowledge! Frederic Morand, the Managing Founder, has a problem-based & solution-oriented approach towards sustainability, and their motto is: act locally, think globally.
