Who we are
About the farm
We are a fifth-generation family farm in Hopsten in the northern Münsterland, working 60 hectares: we grow vegetables, fruit and feed for our animals, and since 2022 we have kept 240 sows and their piglets on pasture with access to the barn, along with free-range hens. Our self-service farm shop, open since 2016, is open weekdays 7:00–20:00 and Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays 8:00–20:00; we offer potatoes, a wide range of vegetables, pumpkins, pasture-raised pork, eggs and pasta made with our own eggs. On Fridays we deliver vegetable and fruit boxes, by appointment we offer barn and farm tours and wine tastings, and in summer you can pick flowers with us.

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.
