Who we are
About the farm
Our family has owned the three-sided farmstead in Helmsdorf (Stolpen) since 1792; we took it over in 1992 and started growing fruit. Today we farm 44 hectares with around 75,000 trees under controlled integrated production: apples (23 varieties), plums, sweet cherries, pears and strawberries, plus vegetables under polytunnels and arable land. You are welcome to pick your own in our six-hectare strawberry field; we sell our own apple juice, fruit brandies and products from neighbouring producers in our farm shops in Helmsdorf and Dresden-Weißig.

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.
