Who we are

About the farm

In Alpen-Veen on the Lower Rhine we have farmed organically since 1990 and as a Demeter-certified biodynamic farm since 1995; today the fifth generation is also running the farm, and we are one of 30 organic model farms in North Rhine-Westphalia. We keep 165 cattle (including about 80 grazing cows, with calves raised by their mothers and male calves reared on the farm) and 50 pigs on straw, and grow potatoes, beetroot, cereals and vegetables. In our farm shop we offer our own Demeter beef, veal and pork, sausages, pasture milk from the tap, beetroot ketchup, sugar beet syrup, apple syrup and salted soup vegetables; we offer farm tours for groups and schools.

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.
