What Makes Us Unique
Pride is taken into conservation and sustainability with the future in mind.
1
Accreditation
Mortru's accreditation includes
GlobalGap and Grasp,
which affirms the brand's commitment to safe, socially, and environmentally
responsible farming practices.
2
Solar Energy
Môreson Trust has installed a solar system of 450KVA.
The electricity that is generated makes up more than half of the power that is used in the packshed to lighten the Eskom load. This helps Môreson Trust to be more energy efficient.

Conservation
Two hectares of wetlands on Môreson are reserved for conservation and the well-being of all wildlife associated with this specific area.
We are striving to use fewer pesticides and herbicides in order to be more environmentally friendly. Runner ducks were introduced in the orchards to keep the snails at bay and cover crops are used to reduce weeds.

Soil Science
Extra effort is put into the science of soil. Healthy soil equals a healthy trees!
This includes improving carbon levels in the soil, providing ample structure for roots to flourish and enabling microbe populations to thrive.
