Who we are
About the farm
Our farm in Zarpen has been in family hands since 1926 and is run by the third and fourth generation: we keep about 70 dairy cows plus young stock, Limousin and Wagyu cross beef cattle and around 1,000 laying hens in mobile coops, and grow feed and potatoes on our own land and vegetables in a polytunnel. In our self-service farm shop, open from 7 am to 8 pm, you can buy eggs, raw milk from the milk vending machine, potatoes and products from partner farms; we sell our own beef monthly at the farm by pre-order. We run farm education programmes for kindergarten and school groups and farm activities for children.

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.
