Who we are
About the farm
Our family farm in Barum in the Lüneburg Heath dates back to 1599; Karsten Ellenberg has run it since 1984, and we have farmed according to Bioland guidelines since 1990/1991. On around 80 hectares of organic arable land we grow more than 100 historic and rare potato varieties, many of them bred by ourselves (such as Rote Emmalie, Potato of the Year 2018), and we produce our own seed potatoes. We sell organic table and seed potatoes in our online shop with shipping and at our drive-in pick-up station on the farm; since 2013 we have also been a demonstration farm for organic agriculture.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
