Open Farm Day in Altes Land

The 2025 edition seamlessly continued the tradition. With mostly pleasant late summer weather, visitors from Hamburg and Lower Saxony flocked to the farms — families, food lovers, hobby gardeners.

Around 25 farms participated along the main roads of Altes Land, from Cranz in the east to Jork and Steinkirchen further west. The Obstparadies-Express reliably shuttled between the largest farms, and many farms offered farm cafés, children's programs, and direct sales of juice, apple sparkling wine, and brandies. A typical North German late summer day — down-to-earth, hospitable, good.
