Helga and Horst came to Brokeloh with their first daughter, Christina, in 1968 and founded the Bickbeernhof Herse. They leased the manor's farm for 18 years and successfully cultivated cultivated blueberries in their first year. Here in Brokeloh, they found land with a high humus content and low pH that offered ideal conditions. This was the ideal location for cultivated blueberries, which had only recently been propagated in Germany and are now grown as a permanent crop.

Over time, the business grew to 22.5 hectares of cultivated land at seven locations around the farm café. All plots were fenced to protect against wildlife and equipped with irrigation systems. The couple had three more daughters and continued to expand their blueberry production.

When the first lease period expired, a new building was constructed on the outskirts of Brokeloh, and the family was able to move into the house and barn. The Bickbeernhof began direct marketing, and the farm café began serving rustic-style waffles and pancakes in 1978.
