Who we are
About the farm
We are a permaculture farm and Arche farm on the site of the former brickworks in Lüneburg-Rettmer: we keep endangered old livestock breeds (Bunte Bentheimer pigs, Moorschnucke sheep, Thüringer Wald goats, Mechelner chickens), practise natural beekeeping, and since 2022 have been planting a one-hectare forest garden with Leuphana University. From our own vegetables and fruit we make over 200 handmade products, which we sell in our farm shop from Wednesday to Sunday, and at weekends our farm café welcomes visitors too. Admission is free; we offer animal sponsorships, volunteering, guided tours and farm markets.

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.
