    The world is still fine here. At the rest station there is self-service with a cash desk of trust, drinks, coffee, small snacks such as fruit, cake, sausage, etc. Open from March to October, on weekends there are grilled dishes from our own production.

      Popular hiking trails, such as the Frankenweg, lead past the organic farm. In the beer garden, surrounded by fruit trees, you can enjoy various dishes and organic drinks. During the week coffee, cake and cool drinks are offered by self-service. Warm dishes are also available during the week on request.

        Until 1998 the farm was a small part-time farm with about 10 dairy cows.
        In addition, a small number of male Fleckvieh breeding calves were bought and raised at the breeding cattle market in Bayreuth over the years.
        The good animals then went from the auction to the insemination stations.
        From 1998 dairy farming was abandoned and more was invested in the rearing of breeding bulls. The stock of breeding calves then grew to more than thirty animals.


        In 2004 a new machine hall was built and some leased areas were added.
        Since January 1, 2017, the whole farm has been managed organically and is a member
        at Naturland.
        The main focus now is suckler cow husbandry with the Simmental, Yellow Cattle and Wagyu breeds with around 50 animals, for which grazing areas have also been fenced off.


        Approx. 12 ha of forest is also managed, which has been converted into a robust mixed forest for many years, mainly through natural regeneration.
