Who we are
About the farm
We farm in the Windrath valley in Velbert-Neviges; we have been a certified Demeter farm since 1985, farming 20 hectares of arable land and 20 hectares of grassland biodynamically and keeping about 30 cattle, a small group of pigs and nearly 300 dual-purpose hens. We sell our own vegetables, meat, home-made organic sausages and eggs through our veg-box delivery service and webshop, and orders can also be collected at the farm. At weekends we welcome guests in our farm café, and we offer farm tours and project days for school classes and groups.

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.
