Who we are
About the farm
In Rellingen-Egenbüttel, on the outskirts of Hamburg, we have run our family farm for many generations: we keep 230 Holstein Friesian and Jersey cows and 100 goats, and grow the feed ourselves on more than 200 hectares. Since 2004 our own on-farm dairy has processed our animals' milk every day into non-homogenised, gently pasteurised milk, yoghurt, soured milk, quark, cream cheese and cheese, and since 2023 we have also made ice cream. We sell our products at weekly markets in and around Hamburg, in the Rellinger Hofladen and from a 24/7 ice-cream vending machine; on the farm we offer farm tours, cheese tastings and cheese-making workshops.

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.
