Who we are
About the farm
We farm in Sauwerd, close to the city of Groningen, in the Reitdiep valley; Wridzer and Petra and their three children are the fifth generation of the Datema family on the Onstaheerd farm, founded 174 years ago. Since 1997 we have farmed organically, without pesticides or artificial fertiliser; we keep Limousin cattle and horses, and part of our land is a protected meadow-bird breeding area. Every year we grow thousands of Uchiki Kuri squashes, which we sell in our farm shop from September to March. From April to September we offer farm tours, as well as care, education and horse-assisted therapy programmes.

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.
