Private Field and Farm tour

In the last five years over 2800 interested people, students, farmers and locals have visited our small farm.

Some to get basic knowledge in sustainable agriculture, or to get more information about Biodynamic farming principles and some are just out of curiosity.

Starting this year, we offer two types of private farm tours that will replace our farms participation in the annual “Open Farm Day”.

The Small Farm Tour:

We will guide you through the farm buildings and you will see all different kind of farm livestock. Duration: 1 to 1½ hours.

Contribution:

$5 pp for groups under 10, $4 pp for groups over 10, $3 pp for school classes

The Farm and Field Tour:

First we will guide you through the farm buildings and you will see all different kind of farm livestock, and then we go on a hay wagon ride over the fields. There you will see different types of crops and learn more about Biodynamic farming principles.

Duration: 2 to 2½ hours.
