Who we are

About the farm

In Diepenveen near Deventer, on the edge of the Nieuw Rande estate forest, we are a biodynamic (Demeter) farm founded in 1994 and one of the first community-supported agriculture (CSA) farms in the Netherlands; today Koen and Myrthe farm here. On 13 hectares we grow more than 50 kinds of vegetables, soft fruit, flowers, and wheat and spelt, which we have milled into our own flour, and we keep a small flock of Drenthe heath sheep. We offer our vegetables in a weekly vegetable box (at nearly 20 pick-up points) and in our farm shop, and from June to October you can pick fruit and flowers yourself in our gardens.
