Who we are
About the farm
We have been a family farm in Soest, at the foot of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug, since 1722, and the Hilhorst family carries the farm on. We milk about 65 Holstein cows with a milking robot, grow our feed on 25 hectares of grassland and 6 hectares of maize, and in our cheese dairy we make young, matured and herb farmhouse cheeses from our own milk. In our farm shop, which looks out onto the cheese making, we offer our cheeses along with milk, buttermilk, yoghurt, butter and quark, as well as regional products and gift hampers.

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.
