Welcome to Brandbygegaard

I apologize for the quality of this English text – blame it on the Danish education or my old dictionary – or just on me. I do my very best, and hope most of the text will make sense to you.

On our little farm we grow food which is an experience to eat.

We are very familiar with the land and know exactly where the potatoes will develop their best taste, where the apple trees thrives, where the raspberries gets their full aroma and where the rucola becomes spicy without bitterness.

 

There is a fine correlation between soil, moisture, sun and care.

Time and good workmanship are decisive elements.

Taste and flavour must be allowed to develop and harvest by ripeness is vital for good food.

 

The supply depends on the season.

In our café vegetables, berries and fruits are transformed into tasty pies and other tempting tings.

Visit and try it some day !

 

The domestic animals are dashing white hens.

Here a hen is allowed to behave like she wants to.

Every morning the gate to the hen run is opened, and there is a race to get the last insects of the night.

The hens are diligent creatures and all day through, they scratch under the flowerbeds (or eat the flowers) between the strawberries, under the plum trees etc. No wonder that they lay big tasteful eggs with a fine yellow yolk.

 

The farm is a vineyard too – we grow grapes for red vine and this is one of the northernmost vineyards in Europe.

You can have a glass of the farms own wine "Dania" in our café "The little Vinery"

Every morning I write about the thrilling life on a Danish farm in the countryside. I am sorry, but so far it is written in Danish only. Maybe you can translate it with Google translation, of maybe you can just enjoy the photos of what is happening here. Anyhow you are welcome to join – just click at this link femalefarmer

Thank you for reading so far Lone
