Looking for a present? The gift that's also a good deed!
A place in nature that gives back
Car-free, self-sufficient, socially inclusive – a place that thinks in cycles and lives with nature rather than just talking about it.
from field to plate
Bread, cheese, wine, fish, meat, vegetables: over 200 products come from the estate itself – including farming, viticulture, orchards, fish farming, cheesemaking, butchery, and wood-fired baking. Everything is seasonal and processed in-house. What isn’t produced on site comes from partners within ten kilometers. A closed-loop value chain – and one you can taste.
a social space, not a system hotel
Around 60 supported jobs and 30 residential places for people with cognitive or mental disabilities shape daily life. 20 apprenticeships in nine professions – from gardening to gastronomy – create real opportunity. Inclusion here isn’t a concept – it’s everyday practice.
energy that makes sense
The in-house woodchip heating system replaces around 166,000 liters of heating oil annually. About 10% of electricity comes from on-site photovoltaics. The car-free setup preserves resources – and cultivates the tranquility that defines this place.
Framework program
The grounds offer rich insights into craftsmanship, landscape, and culture. All activities are clearly themed, nature-oriented, and rooted in place – with a focus on production, learning, and shared experience.
