Who we are

About the farm

We have been farming in Crottendorf in the Ore Mountains since 1595, now in the 11th generation; we started our cheese dairy in 2010 when falling milk prices led us to process our own milk. Our roughly 60 mixed-breed dual-purpose cows and their offspring are fed home-grown fodder and graze from May to October. From their milk we make raw-milk and pasteurised cheeses by hand (Camembert, Crottendorfer Höhenkäse, grilling and flavoured cheeses); in our farm shop we also offer fresh raw milk daily, quark, yoghurt, buttermilk and butter, and we sell through our online shop and at weekly markets in the area.

Who are you?

As a producer, use the email address on your farm profile.

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.

Is this your farm?

If this is your farm, you can take over the profile: click the button and enter your e-mail address. If it matches the address stored for the farm or the website's domain, you receive an edit link at once; otherwise we verify you with an SMS code sent to the farm's known phone number, or with a short manual check. The link is valid for 30 days; your changes appear immediately marked "under review" and become final after approval.
