Who we are
About the farm
In Kirkel-Limbach we have been running our farm as community-supported agriculture (Solawi) since 1 April 2018: on the 86 hectares of our former arable farm we grow rye, spelt, naked oats and triticale, along with potatoes, pumpkins, root and cabbage vegetables and onions, while fine vegetables grow in a 1.5-hectare garden next to the farm and in polytunnels. We keep around 500 laying hens in mobile henhouses with year-round pasture access. Every week, fortnightly in winter, we hand over vegetables, grain, flour, flakes, eggs and boiling fowl to our harvest sharers at the farm, and voluntary help is always welcome.

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.
